The problem as I see it is that the debian installer team is already

why #983357 is not included on the d-i bullseye errata page.
Please assume good faith. I would go for the most obvious possibility,
that while being aware of this issue, they just didn't think at the
same time of the installation guide.
Sorry Debian Installer Team - if I said anything that might make someone
think that the Debian Installer Team is *not* acting in good faith, I am
truly sorry. I am just trying to figure out how to get known bug #983357
mentioned in the official documentation for the bullseye release (and
probably also for bookworm installers).
Do I need to file another bug in addition to #983357 to get this
problem listed on the bullseye (and also RC versions) d-i errata pages?
This is the most establish process, so yes, I suggest you just go and
follow that route, even without a reply here. Than it's documented in
the right place [1].
OK, but after more careful reading, there is an installation-reports
pseudo package for this [2],[3]. I will do such a report for bookworm
(after verifying the problem exists in bookworm) and mention it also
affects bullseye.

Thanks again for your kind and quick reply,
Chuck
[1] unless I'm much mistaken, that would be against the
installation-guide package, but it can be reassigned if I'm wrong.
