mention it either. I don't mind adding a hunk like this: # When disk encryption is enabled, skip wiping the partitions # beforehand. #d-i partman-auto-crypto/erase_disks boolean false Do you think there should be more, like an example recipe? Kind regards Philipp Kern [1] https://www.debian.o

pecifically? I'm not sure what the netinst list is but forcd1's header tells me it's specifically not for netinst/businesscard. I fear we also need it there given the fix will be in bootstrap-base. Does that mean that we actually need to propagate dependencies there somehow? Kind regards Philipp Kern signature.asc Description: OpenPGP digital signature

not introduce a translatable string, so I'd be hopeful that we could still merge this for stretch. I tested the possible paths through this in qemu and the patch only triggers if the option is explicitly set to false. Kind regards Philipp Kern diff --git a/autopartition-crypto b/autopa

Bug#851774: Stop using apt-key add to add keys in generators/60local

2017-01-21 Thread Philipp Kern
if the file is armored or not? I think `apt-key add' just dealt with whatever it got and put the key into the keyring using gpg's --import function. So it's a little unfortunate that we'd now need to know the format of what we need to put into the fragment directory. Kind regards Philipp Kern signature.asc Description: OpenPGP digital signature

http://d-i.alioth.debian.org/manual/ are fine. ...this isn't true. Traditionally additional build dependencies are listed in [0] (patch to be sent to debian-admin@lists.d.o), because we can't simply install packages from a build process. They have to be installed by DSA. Kind regards Philipp Kern
