Hi, here we go to add some discussion on the never ending topic of a graphical installer. The current implementation of the gtk-frontend for cdebconf is highly unsatisfactory. Because of the limited debconf capabilities it is a mere question asker which is not what one would expect from a graphical installer.
It does not make sense to offer a graphical installer which is more or less identical to the newt frontend. We have to discover a way to make use of the capabilities[1] of a more sophisticated frontend while not being to intrusive with the current design of d-i. I had some discussions about that with some people and there were some vague ideas but until now there was no agreement of how it should be done. So I would like to raise the discussion here, to collect ideas and perhaps come to a solution.
