Please unblock package oldsys-preseed This fixes #783019 which is a failure to correctly function on many kirkwood and orion5x armel platforms. Since this package exists to aid with headless installs d-i is basically unusable on any affected system, since it will ask questions on the (non-existent) serial port before enabling the network install path. This package only produces udebs. diff -Nru oldsys-preseed-3.15/debian/changelog oldsys-preseed-3.16/debian/changelog --- oldsys-preseed-3.15/debian/changelog 2015-02-26 03:55:12.000000000 +0000 +++ oldsys-preseed-3.16/debian/changelog 2015-04-21 06:07:22.000000000 +0100 @@ -1,3 +1,11 @@ +oldsys-preseed (3.16) unstable; urgency=medium + + [ Ian Campbell ] + * Avoid exiting prematurely on arm*/orion5x or arm*/kirkwood platforms when + they do not use device tree.
