Package: cdrom-detect Version: 1.31 Tags: patch Severity: wishlist The title of the cdrom-detect/retry template is a bit clumsy. The phrase "try again to" works with a subject (eg.

The space usage is neglitable and I think it can be done with a very small risk of regressions. Be sure to use the kernel-wedge of lenny for building it since we've changed kernel-wedge a lot during the 2.6.30 migration and it is not suitable for the lenny usage. > - Update d-i in 5.0.3 to incorporate this driver Yes, you got the picture right.

should popcon be enabled by default?
Hi, on IRC I just asked why popcon defaults to no instead of yes. Otavio at least said that it ought to be to yes, but Luca said that a no would be better from a user POV IMO it should default like Otavio also said it's more intersting for the project.

The historic reasons are that: - we don't want to have Debian systems "phone home" by default - we don't want to enable something that causes periodic outgoing network traffic by default The question is always displayed, so it's simply up to the user whether he wants to participate or not.

This is the reason I think we could leave 'Yes' as the default answer. It will still give the choice for the user and: - It will allow us to have a better view of users are using - We will be able to have it deplyed in more machines I understand why it has been set to 'No' but maybe we ought to rethink it.

That's normal when using a netinst as the base system packages included on the CD are for a specific release. The question is only asked for netboot installs and businesscard CDs.

Questions in D-I always have, where possible, a "safe" default; the safe value here is "no", not "yes".

I don't know which is the correct spelling, but one must be wrong (from a packaging point of view, not a linguistic one). Also, there is no package called just guj[au]rati, and there is a test-lang test on gujarati-desktop. I don't know if this is wrong too.

I'm a strong "No" voter; the arguments for "No" seem strong and solid to me, whilst the arguments for "Yes" seem self-serving (they're benefits to "Debian", not to the user) or just content-free ("deployed in more machines" is only a benefit for malware authors). - Matt -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-boot-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
