I repeated the installation with a recent daily build,
it failed in the same way, so the bug is not just an
obsolete beta-4 bug. See bug#262070 for a more recent installation

Package: os-prober
Version: 1.77
os-prober fails to find any os's at all after a new Debian buster install,
not even the installed and running DEbian buster.
The install was done using the net-install CD on a USB stick on 2019 01 18,
downloaded immediately before the installation.
root@buster:/h
Just for comparison, on Devuan ascii (stretch wirhout systend), I get:
root@midwinter:/home/hendrik# os-prober
File descriptor 8 (socket:[13898]) leaked on lvs invocation. Parent PID 2831:
/bin/sh
File descriptor 9 (socket:[13899]) leaked on lvs invocation. Parent PID 2831:
/bin/sh
File descript
So the remaining problem is that the Debian Buster os-prober did not
recognise Devuan ascii.

Now that we have the first release candidate for the wheezy installer,
is it also the time to make another serious try at upgrading
squuze to wheezy? Is the infrastructure ready for this?
I've tried the upgrade before last year, with diappointing results,
each time reverting to squeeze in order
