Package: partconf Severity: normal Tags: patch The template asking for an action on a partition with an existing file system is inconsistent with the similar template requesting an action on a partition without any file system
The attached patch proposes a modification which would make both consistent. It may even be applied during string freeze as it indeed does NOT add a string (it removes one). The new string is already present in templates. I wait a bit before applying it, just in case someone objects. -- System Information: Debian Release: testing/unstable Architecture: i386 Kernel: Linux mykerinos 2.4.22 #3 ven nov 28 17:12:53 CET 2003 i686 Locale: LANG=fr_FR.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=fr_FR.UTF-8 (ignored: LC_ALL set to fr_FR.UTF-8)
