Hello, The web page at http://wiki.debian.org/DebianInstaller/Today assumes insider information about the date of past issues.
It is probably out of convience of moving a "current issue" to the "past issue" section, without updating the date. But that is wrong, at least lazy. Example: - May 19th is a problem reported. - On May 20th does non-hardcore-d-i-user a download of d-i - May 21th is the problem fixed and _moved_ ( not updated ) to "past issues" - May 22th has the non-hardcore-d-i-user time to try his fresh download, but she encounters the May 19th problem. And "Today" states that the issue was fixed before the non-hardcore-d-i-user did the download. She had no reason to visit "Today" before encountering the issue. So I propose this change on http://wiki.debian.org/DebianInstaller/Today : ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ * [17 Oct 2006] CD-ROM support on sparc32 (esp) broken in kernel === Past === + ## Use the 'close date'. (not the 'open date' ) * [26 Feb 2007] Installations will fail due to a missing archive signing key. * [17 Feb 2007] CD/DVD-based installations fail in the 'Install the base system' step with failure to check archive signature. Workaround: delete {{{/usr/bin/gpgv}}} and retry. * [26 Nov 2006] arm/ixp4xx (NSLU2): install fails due to [http://lists.debian.org/debian-boot/2006/11/msg01207.html dpkg database corruption] Cheers Geert Stappers -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
