First, are there any other languages that use UTF-8 by default besides Greek? Looking at
I noticed that UTF-8 produces some strange problems in the appearance of some -not all- screens, esp. in the 2nd stage installation. The programs that are affected are base-config: http://people.debian.org/~markos/d-i/base-config-2.png Bug reports filed: #234529 console-data: http://people.debian.org/~markos/d-i/console-data.png and tasksel: http://people.debian.org/~markos/d-i/tasksel-2.png Bug reports filed: #238739 Of all the most broken seems to be tasksel. I think that some of the problems (all?) are related to #232426, which is pending upload with a patch for 43 days now. Mind you, the problems with tasksel all appear in all locales that support UTF-8. I tried {en_US, en_GB, de_DE, es_ES, pl_PL, ru_RU}.UTF-8 and all had the same problem. It really makes an otherwise clean & perfect installation look amateurish. The patch in #232426, fixes the effect in #238765, but it still looks like the screen is too wide (goes outside the screen bounds). As a side note, package ifupdown seems to have the same problem that shadow had, it's in need of a translations-only NMU, what do you think?
