Package: installation-reports Severity: important I'll be skipping the "Package-Specific Info" section because this bug is being filed from my laptop and not the server where the issue was seen.
I used the official Lenny Multi-arch netinst cd image and booted. Installation went fine and just then I noticed that the installer configures apt with the "etch" release. This then further breaks everything. It downgrades a bunch of packages, removes rsyslogd (it wasn't the default in etch), and then ultimately fails with some dependency. I had to manually chroot and change the release to lenny and then things went okay. This is a major bug in the installer. If you agree, please increase the severity.
