It didn't, because the packages are not mentioned in the Packages file. I believe this patch fixes the problem. I checked that the updated packages now is listed in Packages, but I haven't done a test install yet.

Hurd
Hello, I am a FS fan in China. I am interested in GNU's software, and I am using Debian GNU/Linux now--although I write this E-mail under Windows. And I also want to try Debian GNU/Hurd. And I land on the homepage of GNU/Hurd to get more about it. After that, I still have questions. I want to know the packages-list in detail of Debian GNU/Hurd H4's four CDS ! Can you give me the URL of that information or in another way! Thank you! Best wishes, Yours, Steven Wu -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?

The reason for this is that debconf now is installed noninteractively by debootstrap, and that base-config never tries to reconfigure the package after installation. I'm not sure if it should reconfigure it. It does for the passwd package, for obvious reasons, but is debconf level important enough for adding another question to the installation system? > - gpm: is not in disk#1 :-(.

I do not know why gpm is missing from the CD, but I do know that gpm previously could make the installation hang when installing on machines with no PS/2 mouse. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".

Two reasons: - It was asked/prompted in prior installation CDs that I have tried (potatos r1, r2, ...). - "debconf" is something that makes Debian different! First time users (who do not upgrade), should be aware that "debconf" exists. > I do not know why gpm is missing from the CD, but I do know that gpm > previously could make the installation hang when installing on > machines with no PS/2 mouse. For the some reason, I am using gpm the make a non PS/2 mouse work. (trial and error by using gpmconfig). But, perhaps kudzu is a better way... regards, -- Rahmat M.
