Package: installation-reports
Yesterday I tried to install Debian testing on a ThinkPad T43p
using the then current version of debian-testing-i386-netinst.iso,
which was dated 2016-08-22. I chose the default at almost all stages
and everything seemed to work up to the bit where it told me to

I missed the versio number before. The main happening is we've switched

I'm trying to install on an IBM ThinkPad 570 with the floppy images
from /debian/dists/sarge/main/installer-i386/20040430/images/floppy
but the disc seems to be invisible: /proc/ide only contains drivers,
there's no /dev/hda, etc.
Any advice for me?
The bit of the installer where it's telling
The machine boots into Windows 98, presumably using some kind of disc,
so the hardware does exist.
Moreover, installation using
/debian/dists/woody/main/disks-i386/3.0.23-2002-05-21/images-1.44 is
working nicely. So that's a regression in sarge, though perhaps all it
needs is a boot argument to

When I used bogl-bterm with i386 machine (faster than 1GHz), I
felt it was very slow. If the installation process meets scrolling
of the screen, I think bogl-bterm is too slow. I don't know about
VMWare nor other architectures.

I applied Alan Cox's patches to bogl-0.1.12 and found that
bogl-bterm-udeb's bterm scrolled much faster. I have forwarded the
patches to Daniel Jacobowitz. Anyone else who wants them, let me know.
It's probably worth checking Red Hat's sources in case there are any
other improvements in there.

The Woody boot-floppies have apparently been translated to Finnish and
Esperanto. However, because there are no language definition files for
these translations, they are not showing up in the language chooser that
the user sees.

Perhaps if you put all the localisation data for each language into a
separate file that is searched for in the root directory of the
floppy, then people could download a localisation file separately and
copy it onto the floppy. It wouldn't then matter so much which
localisations are included

Wrong. `iso14651_t1' is appropriate for the UTF-8 locale.
Normally I would agree, but I chose POSIX for LC_COLLATE for two
reasons: it's smaller; lots of people don't like the new-fangled
collation (they don't like

Probably we should create a new minimal locale which is just like C,
except that it uses UTF-8. Maybe we can call it C.UTF-8.
I'm not an export on locales, but I'll try to have a look at it and
see if I can make something work.
I tried blending i18n

Hi.

Yes. No borders.
EGE and the text on a button (e.g.

We need to have the stuff in subject included in bf bould
process somehow. The question is: how? AFAIK bterm has its own
package (bogl-bterm), as does bdf fonts' source. (Now we either
need to put libutf8 in its package or make bterm work without
it
Marcin Owsiany [EMAIL PROTECTED]:
Thanks! Now we have to check newt-utf8 by Enrique, then check the problem
in bogl-bterm which impede bterm working without libutf8.
So do we actually stick to libutf8 or try to make it work with
glibc?
We make it work with glibc.
Done.

If we are going to use UTF-8 for the installer, then we need a new
editor instead of ae. I looked at the source for ae and thought it
would be easier to write a new editor from scratch than to add
multibyte support to ae.
QEmacs may be the answer: http://www-stud.enst.fr/~bellard/qemacs/

There isn't a Debian package yet.
There is now, because I just made one:

I'm not a Debian maintainer, of course, so if any maintainer wants to
review this and upload it, that might be useful. (I know there are
these things called ITPs.)

There seem to be a whole bunch of problems with the utf8 slang
packages. People are having trouble with slrn, lynx, etc. Possibly
these packages just need to be recompiled but the following seems more
serious:

So we should provide libutf8 package, or make bogl-bterm statically
linked to libutf8 library.
Bruno Haible's page states that libutf8 is needed only libc versions
below 2.2. So, 2.2.2-4 should work fine.
This is correct. I stopped using libutf8

I have a patch from the boot-floppies archives to give slang wide
character support. I've attached that patch.
Since making slang-1.4.0-ege5.diff I have fixed at least one bug and
ported the patch to slang-1.4.2, I think.
I shall try to produce an up-to-date

You seem to be avoiding the question here -- patch slang1, use
slang1-ja, or make a new slang1-wide package with these patches?
It's hardly feasible to make a version of slang1 that works in UTF-8
and is bug-free and binary-compatible with ordinary slang1.
I shall try to produce an up-to-date slang-1.4.4-ege.diff soon.
