Thanks for your kind words. I would have to spend a few more time on possible impact on reverse dependencies, but as long as we have something limited to d-i/debian-boot-maintained packages, that should be rather manageable. > Bugs I would close in the process are : > #666530: cups fails to configure under cdebconf > #752002: Please run maintainer scripts in correct selinux context > #700924,#720339: Please allow to show/hide characters typed in > password field Ooh, the last ones would really be awesome to have.

Please wait a bit so that I can check nothing would get entangled into the big GCC5/libstdc++6 thing. I expect to give you a more detailed answer in a few days. > PS : Sadly, I can't be at Debconf this year, as I'm starting a new > job. Ironically, I'll only be 1h drive away from Heidelberg... Feel free to share the location in a private mail. An hour in the right direction might make your paths cross at some point. ;) Mraw, KiBi.
