These are some of the packages affected by the "Validating %s" problem
using businesscard ISOs.
2003-12-31 (md5sum a2c1f661d8eaa1323eedb49f825fc6b0):
apt apt-utils aptitude bsdmainutils debconf dpkg dselect
exim4-daemon-light fileutils grep groff-base libc6 libgcrypt1
libssl0.9.7 nvi pcmcia-cs perl-base ppp slang1 syslinux wget

With this iso, in the "Receiving packages" step, packages are not
received but just validated.
No packages seems to be affected by the problem, the "Validating x" string
is translated correctly and %s is replaced with package name.
However, after the packages extraction, debootstrap exits with an error
and I am unable to go on.

It's probably wget-related since when the package is not received but just
validated, the bug do not appears.
