(/preseed.cfg in the installer system) d-i debian-installer/locale string en_AU Seems I got confused because on my sid laptop with dpkg-reconfigure locales there are en_AU.UTF-8 (UTF-8) and en_AU (ISO-8859-1). In the d-i locale chooser there is only en_AU, but it doesn't say if it is UTF-8 or not. If I select en_AU in d-i then both en_AU.UTF-8 (UTF-8) and en_AU (ISO-8859-1) will be selected in the installed system's dpkg-reconfigure locales. If I leave it as the default (no locale selected in d-i) then only en_AU.UTF-8 (UTF-8) will be selected in the installed system's dpkg-reconfigure locales. So, I guess that this bug can be closed due to PEBCAK. -- bye, pabs http://wiki.debian.org/PaulWise
