I understand that, but I think that the _choice_ should be default, because it is what many _basic_ users (e.g. returning back to Debian from Ubuntu) expect (and the non-basic users choose the expert mode anyway). But it's not the point of this particular BR (Should I report one as wishlist or is there previous discussion/consensus ?) > Please check the value of the passwd/root-login template in > /var/log/installer/cdebconf/questions.dat.

On both "standard" installations, passwd/root-login is not set => I have not been asked. > > Answer to the side note: I just tried debian-LennyBeta2-i386-CD-1.iso > > with the graphical installer as well (swiss french, crypted LVM) and I > > had no question about sudo...

So the fact that I have not been asked about sudo (or rootless setup) is just a matter of priority in the installer. But this bug should stay to ensure that _if_ the rootless setup is selected under KDE, kdesudo should be installed and configured over kdesu. Regards, Didier -- Didier Raboud, proud Debian user.
