 Please take a look and comment on those. If you think anything is

AFAIK everything needed for d-i is now in squeeze-proposed-updates, so
the updated debian-installer can be uploaded.  I'm planning to do that
in a couple hours if I don't hear otherwise (and Otavio doesn't get to
it first).

 Looks okay, other than the version number should be 1.68+squeeze1.
 Fixed in unstable but not migrated to testing yet; could we unblock it?

I prepared a squeeze branch for this and pushed it to the repo[1], but
was told that I should not upload myself because this will be done in
a mass upload. 

The squeeze branch only contains the fix for #610843 and not all the
other changes that are in unstable.

In case there was any confusion, my looks okay above was in reference to
the contents of the squeeze branch.  The unstable package should ideally
probably also be unblocked so that it can reach testing before the point
release, otherwise the squeeze package will end up being pushed in to
testing to ensure that stable isn't newer than testing.

 grub-installer

Doesn't look like this got uploaded yet?  The relevant fix is in
unstable but not testing yet; could we unblock the unstable package?

 linux-kernel-di-sparc-2.6

Presumably needs the kernel to be in before uploading.  Also, I'd
assumed that each of the l-k-d-i-* would get re-uploaded after the
kernel had been updated?  That's certainly what tended to happen for
lenny.

 tasksel

We agreed to skip this.

 cdebconf

Was this a checksum-related change?  I can't immediately find a
repository for it in order to check.

 debootstrap

Uploaded and accepted minus the checksum changes, as agreed.

 kernel-wedge

Not uploaded yet?

- kernel

Planned for this weekend, although not uploaded yet afaics.

- libdebian-installer

tbm's fixes for the new devices look fine.  Not updated in unstable yet
though, so you'll end up with the squeeze version being propagated
upwards.

- debian-installer

Needs everything else (except d-i-n-i) to be in place first.

Is the current proposed upload everything between the 20110106 tag and
the head of the squeeze branch? (i.e. up to 60f4ca5)

As there hasn't been a d-i upload in unstable since the release, and
assuming there isn't one beforehand, the updated images from p-u should
get copied to testing and unstable during the point release; not sure
how you (-boot) and ftp-master feel about that.

- debian-installer-netboot-images

Needs updating for #616014, both for sanity and license compliance
reasons.  See above r.e. versioning.

- colo-installer

Updated in both p-u and unstable, but not in testing yet as it's on
britney's needs-approval list.  Could we unblock it?  Otherwise 1.17
+squeeze1 will end up in testing during the point release.

- console-setup

Looks okay, other than the version number should be 1.68+squeeze1.
Fixed in unstable but not migrated to testing yet; could we unblock it?

- hw-detect

The fix for #611314 was previously acked and is fine. The comment
removed as part of 4b40c64 says # Loading snd-powermac locks up G5
systems; is that no longer the case?

Again, this has been fixed in unstable but not unblocked for testing
yet.

- apt-setup

Admittedly I have a slight vested interest here, but getting #613910
fixed in squeeze (and preferably unstable and testing) should help
reduce the support burden on #debian from people who chose not to use a
network mirror during install uncommenting the broken sources.list
entries, either manually or using e.g. update-manager, and then being
surprised when they don't work.

- anything I missed?

Adam

Well, having it fixed in unstable would be a good start. The problem
doesn't just affect stable so having the first time the patch is in the
archive be a stable point release isn't generally appropriate.

Where would one find the patch for #614884?  Is it purely the snippet in
your message #21 in the bug log?

There were two problems. One was the wrong filepath to the migrate
script (yes, the snippet,) and the other was the missing execution bit.
With both fixes applied, the migrate script was executed as intended,
and once I patched the migrate script, NM worked properly after an install.

The biggest barrier to this is that Matt said he'd commit  upload as
soon as someone confirmed the bug is fixed by his patch. Well, I did
that, but don't have the source for the patched netcfg so we at least

For the record, after a discussion on #-boot earlier this evening, we
concluded that checksum-related fixes for d-i components, or software
used by them, will be skipped for 6.0.1 due to time constraints.

In order to allow us to be confident that nothing in the installer
breaks when such changes are introduced, we plan to introduce them
shortly after the point release, giving us at least a month to get the
fixes tested and updated if required.  From the packages which have been
discussed so far, this would mean deferring the checksum-related
components of fixes for:

{c,}debootstrap
base-installer
libdebian-installer

If the above doesn't match your recollection of the discussion, or
anyone has strong objections to the above, please yell. :-)

AFAICT -updates should be used when changes should be pushed to users

So all in -updates would be included in the point release together with
other things accepted in proposed-updates.

You're right: it probably won't qualify and point releases are
probably enough.

I can consider that. But that requires trying to unfuzzy translations is

 Is there any chance we can update the apt-setup debconf templates to

I'm afraid I can't find any good formulation that doesn't fuzzy all
translations and avoids having a full translation update round (which
means collecting 64 updates if we want to keep the same localization
level).

Even for 20-30 languages, I need a very significant amount of time for
this to happen. More than the 6.0.1 timeframe, I think.

Also , we need to find a way to name the formerly volatile updates
to fit in this:

# All services are enabled by default to allow preseeding
Template: apt-setup/services-select
Type: multiselect
Choices-C: security, volatile
# SEC_HOST and VOL_HOST are host names (e.g. security.debian.org)
# Translators: the *entire* string should be under 55 columns
# including host name. In short, KEEP THIS SHORT and, yes, that's tricky
# :sl3:
__Choices: security updates (from ${SEC_HOST}), volatile updates (from 
${VOL_HOST})
Default: security, volatile
# :sl3:
_Description: Services to use:
 Debian has two services that provide updates to releases: security and
 volatile.
 .
 Security updates help to keep your system secured against attacks. Enabling
 this service is strongly recommended.
 .
 Volatile updates provide more current versions for software that changes
 relatively frequently and where not having the latest version could reduce
 the usability of the software. An example is the virus signatures for a virus
 scanner. This service is only available for stable and oldstable releases.


In short, I know that volatile is now named squeeze-updates...but
how is it called more generically?

They're not only bug fixes but also database updates and like.

Important system updates?

Perhaps we should determine what the suite will finally be called in

One might argue that they're not important as well (think about the

well suited, indeed..:-)

I've created a squeeze branch for console-setup branched from the
version in squeeze with only the change to fix #610843 and pushed this
branch to the d-i repo.

I also tested the package with a netboot-gtk mini.iso built from
squeeze (and localudebs) and it indeed fixes the bug and AFAICS does
not introduce any regressions.
