The directory that is giving us the woody pserver problems is:
boot-floppies/utilities/bf-utf/
I assume the files are only needed for the non-building language chooser.
Can bf-utf files be removed? Can these fonts be recreated by adding an
appropriate build-depends to boot-floppies? Should we
Package: boot-floppies
Severity: important
Version: 2.2.21
Well, I was hoping to get language chooser in on a potato point
release, but this is looking less and less likely. I must say, I'm
a bit disappointed that reported problems are not getting fixed there.
Here are the problems
bterm's font reduction to build process
- utilitise/dbootstrap/Makefile: added rules necessary for creation of
'dbootstrap-lc' - a language-chooser enabled dbootstrap, added configure
runs to generation of libnewt and libslang
- utilities/dbootstrap/po/Make
Based on my take on the language chooser discussions here, we are
going to have to target language chooser for 2.2r2, assuming that
2.2r1 comes out in the next week or so. I just feel like making the
language chooser mainstream ATM would be a big risk. I can't think of

That sounds good. One could ch

Glancing at it, it looks pretty good and should be comitted into the
mainline of the boot-floppies CVS. It will have no adverse affect if the
LANG_CHOOSER is not being used.
The only grotty thing about it, real
Here is the patch.
Now we have to agree on how/which font to use, and make the changes to put
all the necessary files on root disk.

It is not :-P
It was caused by langs.o somehow not built with LAN
OK, let's clear up some things (I need more sleep :-P ):
1) in bterm, I don't see the Polish chars I'm typing directly from keyboard,
but that is OK, isn't it? (I've got an ordinary US keyboard)
2) I can see all the characers properly in dbootstrap under bterm now that I
use the trm files from u
