Bug#394076: Please add to instalation logs dfbinfo's output
Package: installation-report
Severity: minor
Tags: patch
The dfbinfo tool is a diagnostic tool meant to gather infos about
DirectFrameBuffer configuration and it's going to be provided [1] by
libdirectfb-0.9-25-udeb.
Having its output in the instalation logs would be very useful to debug
graphical-installer related issues: could this be achived by something
like the attached patch?
Note that the patch assumes dfbinfo to be located in
/usr/lib/directfb-0.9.25/bin/, which won't be true the day a
libdirectfb-bin-udeb is created.
cheers
