Here's what I've done: - patched fonts-lohit-guru locally to build a udeb; - patched rootskel-gtk to teach gtk-set-font about the pa = "Lohit Punjabi" mapping; - patched debian-installer to include the new udeb in its gtk build (and the modified rootskel-gtk one, of course). The resulting netboot-gtk mini.iso for amd64 has been (detach-)signed and uploaded to people.debian.org; you'll find a screenshot with both DejaVu and with Lohit Punjabi in the same directory. I see rendering is slightly different but I cannot tell if that's the expected one.
