I'd be happy to do that when rebuilding for translation (I have a
bunch of pending builds to do, because of recent updates for two
languages).

I can probably start doing so as soon as my next race is over and I'm
back to work (it is suppsoed to start in.6h30...and end on next Sunday).

Of course, it won't cover all D-I packages, but once done for those
with translated material, I can continue with others.

Bug#874597: debian-installer: switch to debhelper 10

2017-09-07 Thread Cyril Brulebois
Source: debian-installer
Severity: normal

We're still using debhelper 7, and we're seeing such lines during the build:
| dh_clean: Compatibility levels before 9 are deprecated (level 7 in use)
| dh_installdirs: Compatibility levels before 9 are deprecated (level 7 in use)

… so I guess it's time we update debhelper compat and check Standards-Version.
Any takers?

While I'm at it, other deprecation warnings show up:

Yes, let me explain. That was just because at that point it was clear
that the bugs are in that version, no checks for older versions were
made. Then you did further work, and found the jessie and stretch
version as well as affected. So only later updated the BTS with the
repsective other found versions. Hope this explains. But we are maybe
side-tracking the SRM now, so I shut up!

Regards and thanks for your work!

I didn't used a profiler. I just look at the code and saw that the
/var/lib/dpkg/available files is read several times, and that often
only certains lines are needed. Using grep is much faster that doing
this with perl. I also replaced a loop with a perl hash and moved an
expression which always evaluates to the same value out of a loop.
But read the commit mails of the patches, they explain a lot in
detail.

I also tried to optimize some perl regex, but my tests didn't gain a
notable improvement, so if left the regex unchanged.

I have no straightforward way to double check things still run smoothly
with stretch's d-i, so I'll follow whatever decision the release team
makes; if regressions pop up, we'll figure out how to fix them.
