Package: debian-installer Version: 20081029 Hi, After I accidentally marked the "desktop environment" (or whatever the exact name is) task and started downloading the packages there was no way I could stop the download process. Ctrl+c, ctrl+z, escp, nothing worked, and sending a SIGHUP, later a SIGTERM, and finally a SIGKILL to aptitude and the other d-i subprocs related to the packages download only cause the d-i screen to be stall. Although I would like to see an option to cancel the download process (severity: wishlist) I would first of all like to see d-i reacting whenever its child procs are killed (hence the severity of the report). Oh, and starting another d-i instance didn't help at all as the locks were still around and nothing could be done. Cheers, -- Raphael Geissert - Debian Maintainer www.debian.org - get.debian.net
