Hello, some work has been done to provide the necessary libraries needed for the gtk-frontend as udebs. Many of them have been uploaded to the archive, so I hope that debugging can start soon. Not exactly eye-candy but at least a proof, that we make progress provides a first screenshot: http://www.mmweg.rwth-aachen.de/~sebastian.ley/d-i/gtk-frontend.png There is still a lot of work: * Due to many segfaults the gtk-frontend is unusable. Lot of debugging must be done here. * The gtk-frontend is expected to be richer as the text-frontend. It should not be another means to display a too long menu list. * A concept of how the gtk-frontend will be integrated must be worked out and implemented. E.g. there should be the possibility of using the gtk-frontend without having to answer any other questions first for the debian-desktop project. Help, comments and discussion is very much appreciated. Progress will be announced on http://www.mmweg.rwth-aachen.de/~sebastian.ley/d-i/ and here on debian-boot.
