Dear Christian, in #592550, I and others are proposing to add a functionality to network-console, and the proposed patch would introduce the following templates: diff -pruN 1.29/debian/network-console.templates 1.29ubuntu1/debian/network-console.templates --- 1.29/debian/network-console.templates 2011-06-19 02:40:08.000000000 +0000 +++ 1.29ubuntu1/debian/network-console.templates 2011-10-18 17:23:42.000000000 +0000 @@ -75,3 +75,19 @@ _Description: Start SSH . Please check this carefully against the fingerprint reported by your SSH client. + +Template: network-console/authorized_keys_url +Type: string +Description: for internal use; can be preseeded + What URL contains a list of authorized SSH public keys? + . + The file at the given URL should be of the same form as a standard OpenSSH + authorized_keys file. + +Template: network-console/authorized_keys_fetch_failure +Type: error +# should be translated when committed upstream +Description: Could not fetch OpenSSH authorized keys + An error occurred while fetching OpenSSH authorized keys from ${LOCATION}. + . + Check /var/log/syslog or see virtual console 4 for the details. How are considered the templates that are purposed for preseeding ? Do you think that, from an i18n point of view, it would still be possible to get that patch in D-I for Wheezy ? To be fair, this function is not essential; but it is neat, as it allows to log in D-I with the same procedure as on some high-profile machine images (like http://alestic.com/). Reading the explanation about sublevels that you posted in 2007 ( http://lists.debian.org/debian-boot/2007/12/msg00480.html ), it looks like the propose patch is actually missing an indication of sublevel. Would sublevel 5 be relevant ? I would like to update the patch and propose a NMU (depending on your answer about string freeze).
