How is it resolvable using the Packages files provided by the cds?
There's a /var/lib/dpkg/status in the initrd that mentions libdebconfclient0-udeb. Why isn't this good enough? In any case, it's going to suck if we have to duplicate all installed-in-the-initrd udebs on the CD as well. Ditching those saves 11MB from powerpc CDs, as I mentioned a while back. -- Colin Watson [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
