Package: base-installer
Version: 0.067
Severity: minor
The code to check the installation language and install extra packages
into /target/ do not relly belong to base-installer. It should be
moved to languagechooser instead. This is the code in question (from
current SVN):
queue_language_debs () {
# Language specific packages.
info "Installing language specific packages."
db_get debian-installer/language || true
if [ "$RET" != "en" ]; then
info "Trying to install package iso-codes into /target/."
# Package iso-codes is missing in Woody. Do not fail
# if it is missing to make d-i capable of installing
# Woody and Skolelinux.
if apt-install iso-codes ; then
:
else
warning "Installing package iso-codes failed."
fi

case "`echo $RET | sed 's/:.*//'`" in

# Japanese, Korean, Greek, Chinese, Bulgarian, Arabic, Hebrew,
Turkish, Ukranian

apt-install unifont || true

# Russian
apt-install console-cyrillic || true
apt-install console-terminus || true

}
If this code is moved to languagechooser, the request packages will be
installed when the apt-install queue is processed.
