Bug#174360: problem occurs in debian-installer
reassign 174360 debian-installer
thanks
The problem I described in boot-floppies is precisely reproduced in
the current debian-installer code, except for the poor wording of the
domain name question, which is much improved in d-i. My comments on the
question sequence, and on the theory behind them, apply just as well to
debian-installer, and I propose the same solution that I suggested in
the original bug report.
The prioritised questions mechanism of debconf seems to have the potential
to avoid some of the flexibility/simplicity problems, by avoiding the
need to choose a single tradeoff point.
I understand that this kind of change isn't a priority for the
debian-installer team at the moment, so please don't take this bug report
as demanding instant attention.
