Package: debian-installer
Severity: normal
Dear Maintainer,
* What led up to the situation?
When installing a new system via pxe.
* What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
ineffective)?
I specified mirror/http/hostname=http://mirrorurl.com
* What was the outcome of this action?
This caused the system to fail in an obscure way. Saying that the repository
was not usable.. When you check the log you see the following:
Apr 25 23:49:37 main-menu[704]: DEBUG: resolver (libc6-udeb): package doesn't
exist (ignored)
Which is not the case at all.
* What outcome did you expect instead?
I expect that having entered the http:// part in error there would be some
validation on the string provided. I expect the installer would point out the
problem or correct it.
