Re: Jessie Alpha 1 in Punjabi
Quoting A S Alam (amanpreet.a...@gmail.com): Hi Christian I am writing after a long time. I am testing Jessie Alpha 1 and I found there when I selected Punjabi for installer, I am not able to move next from Keyboard selection (even I selected US English as keyboard). Installer Stuck in Network Selection Step. Can you please help for issue to report if it is not know Another issue is Rendering Broken for Punjabi in Installer. I am sorry about Punjabi Translation as it is not completed. Hello Aman (Aman is the long-time translator for Punjabi for the installer). I sadly loosely test the installer in tha various languages it is translated into. I seem to remember reading some reports about apparent hangs at some points. Maybe the same than you describe here. IIRC, some have been identified and maybe fixed in the recent versions of packages. However, as these are packages used in early stages of the installation, the fixes do not appear until a new version of the installer is built and uploaded. Maybe some other D-I developer will have a clue about all this (I'm therefore CC'ing the D-I development list, which is the recommended contact address for repots and discussion about D-I. But thanks of course for taking care to report the issue We also had some broken rendering issues, which may have been fixed in the meanwhile. Don't worry, you still have time to complete the translation. I'm sadly less active in tracking all this down and bothering translators so thatthey complete their work. On the other hand, not so many strings have changed so your translation is still quite widely usable. signature.asc Description: Digital signature

I have done a rebuild of all the drivers (input and video) and only xf86-video-glamo failed to build; all the others build fine against the new xserver. There are no conflicts for the transition, so we could start this right away, though since 1.16 final isn't out yet, it may be wise to wait for that. FWIW I've quickly toyed with: - the server udeb fetched from experimental; - the -input-evdev udeb built from the debian-experimental branch against current libevdev-dev package (see attached patch, not sure it's needed to apply it, your call) and experimental's server The patch looks good, feel free to apply it. development package; - the -video-fbdev udeb built from the debian-unstable branch against experimental's server development package.

Dear Maintainer,
hi, here is a patch from Ubuntu to add support of ppc64el.
I just changed grub-cdrom.cfg to remove any d-i option on the kernel command
line.
I added virtio-modules to support VMs with virtio which is good to have for
development.
Thank you,
F.

I think that all the dependencies should be already present for libselinux: Depends: libc6 (= 2.14), libpcre3 (= 8.10) But this doesn't mean that we'll be able to do anything related to selinux in the installer, there are other packages that would be needed to do anything useful, but this would be a first step to have SELinux related functions in d-i maybe I'm missing something obvious but I fail to see how SELinux could be useful in the installer context. Well my initial idea was to try to see if we could provide an installer that was able to install a SELinux enabled machine on the first reboot with all the files properly labeled on disk. But as said this would require some changes in different components (udpkg, add a refpolicy udeb,...), so this is maybe a bit premature to start providing a udeb for libselinux. I'm adding -boot@ to the loop to have more eyes on this. This was actually a wild idea and I didn't really checked in depth. So if somebody is really interested in this, I could have a look otherwise I'll put this in my longterm TODO list I guess.
