Bug#273718: base-config: Wrong display with Arabic language in D-I 2nd stage
Package: base-config
Version: 2.47
Severity: important
Tags: l10n d-i
THe display for Arabic installations is wrong in 2nd stage. No character is
shown on the console.
As the arabic locales are ISO-8859-6, some support should be added to
termwrap for this. Something like:
ISO-8859-6)
# Load ISO-8859-6 charset mapping into console
try_load_charset "$ENCODING" iso06 iso06.f16
