How much of localechooser's finish-install script really needs to run at
the very end? Could some/all/the problimatic bits be moved to a
base-installer.d hook, where they would happen before console-cryillic
is installed?
Interesting question. We currently have:
-install libfribidi0 for RTL

Indeed, they are. Localechooser's finish-install does so but, from
Eugenyi explanations, it indeed overwrites the defaults set by the
console-cyrillic package itself.
Indeed, I see two ways to go:
-remove console-cyrillic for Russian and do just like we do for
Just FYI. D-Link DSL-200 (rev.B1) was distributed for free _as
officially supported modem_ for new ADSL users during the last months
by one popular ADSL provider in Saint-Petersburg and suburbia. So, I
think several thousands of users are currently using it here. Of
course most of them work

Maybe it's still time to try working to support such modems from the

It's not practical. Either it can work in the installer without fiddling
or it's easier for the user to install
As for clock, I think you didn't get my point. I don't complain about
what installed system thought of my clock (whether they were set to
UTC or local time). I just want to say that hardware clock must have
not been changed in any case without reliable response from NTP
server. Debian has to
I guess I didn't, if I understood your question correctly. In other
words I used non-localised D-I interface.
So, your suggestion becomes to install stuff to support the rendering
of cyrillic at the console when one selects the Russian keymap.
That would actually mean a major design change in

Because the bug _is_ noticed now it is better to think of how to solve it
instead of yelling. Eugeniy has actually proposed some ways how to do it.
I hope you understand that this problem is common for all languages
Sorry for newb question.Is it possible to have good and readable russian fonts without console-cyrillic in Debian?-- Igor Zubarev
I see. Personally, I also do not use console-cyrillic in my russian
installations. The console-tools package has a set of russian fonts and
keymaps I am pretty satisfied with. So, perhaps, one solution is to make
console-cyrillic optional and remove it from tasks or whatever place
Maybe, yes.
it is mentioned in the installer. But then /etc/console/boottime.keymap.gz
and /etc/console-tools/config should be configured properly with a certain
tool. I am not experienced with the details of how the installer works, so
Indeed, they are. Localechooser's finish-install does so but,
AFAIK, console-cyrillic is just a set of cyrillic fonts, keymaps and a script
to tie them up. One thing to mention is that keymap is generated dynamically
by the script from a base keymap and a chosen method of layout switching.
That's all.
Dunno.
kbd development seems pretty stucked...and
