Package: choose-mirror
Version: N/A; reported 2004-08-26
Severity: normal
Using choose-mirror in a daily netinst tarball downloaded 2004-08-24,
a problem arose trying use to a web-proxy that authenticates against
a windows domain, requiring the following syntax:
http://DOMAN\user:[EMAIL PROTECTED]
If you mean syntactically correct as in changing:
http_proxy=http://DOMAN\user:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:port/
into
http_proxy=http://DOMAN/user:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:port/
then wget tries to connect to DOMAIN:80 as a http proxy, with
the expected failure that brings.
It's definately being eaten by the shell.
The problem here is the new code in 6.2.5-5 to "only run in daemon mode
if the global config doesn't."
Unfortunately, the default /etc/fetchmailrc file contains a commented
out daemon 300 line, which the grep -qs check is picking up, AFAICT.
Anyway, uncommenting the line in /etc/fetchmailrc makes

It would get to 85% (Creating Device Nodes) and then fail. As
If I pass a debconf setting on the boot command prompt,
will that affect any packages installed during "Install
The Base System"?
If so, I could put an option on the command line to do
this, setting mdadm to _not_ start the notifier daemon
by default.
This would make raid/lvm installation relativ
Now that I've found ViewSVN for debian-installer, I've
managed to work out exactly where it's dying.
In base-installer's postinst, the following stanza
is create_devices(). The mdadm support was added in
revision 16940 on June 18th, so I expect this in itself
was not the problem, by mdadm was. Min
