Hi Martin,
I made these changes because cdebconf had a different behaviour than
debconf, and assumed that SUBST was used as a workaround.
From debconf-devel.7 about the SUBST command:
Do not try to use SUBST to change the default

Hi,
debconf makes a difference between no value and an empty value.
In order for cdebconf to have the same behaviour, question_get_field
must return NULL if the requested field does not exist, which breaks
many things because it is supposed

Keyboard selection should also come very early.
We-ell, sure, but I see no reason why it shouldn't be a main menu
(note that you don't have to CC me :P)
I don't understand why debconf has to be restarted. It can set
LANGUAGE and use it later during the same execution, right?
There is a problem with having language selection in this script, you
cannot change language if e.g. you realize that your

A few questions about debian-installer:
1) Is it currently possible to test frontends to cdebconf other than the
text one? And if so, how?
No idea. If you get the slang frontend working on a boot floppy,
please

It depends on the way you do it.
You can add stuff to a data structure without breaking backwards compatibility.
I'm considering adding more stuff to struct
I'm trying to get CD installs to work, and right now I can't do ...
anything, really, since libc-udeb is missing, so I'm stuck with the
ultra-reduced libc from the floppy I boot from.
Come to think of it, I don't see why any of the stuff in
main/debian-installer shouldn't be on the CD. Does

New retriever protocol (see changes to doc/retriever.txt)
I'll bite. Why do we need suite support in debian-installer? I hope it
will always consist of nothing but free software, therefore in the main
suite.
Oh, the suite is not what's new,
