> It still do not work, not sure why.
The problem must have been a human error on the testers side. I've
tested again, this time without editing the postinst script in d-i
manually, and it worked. Here is an updated patch, fixing a minor
issue with the preseed file not being available in the chroot where
ltsp-build-client is running.
It might be better to not append to the file pointed to by an existing
--debconf-seeds argument in case that file is part of an installed
debian package. Such change would require more work on the argument
parser.
