Bug#215444: messes up udeb priorities



Package: debian-cd
Severity: grave

Debian-cd procudes CDs for woody which contain udebs. The packages files
for these udebs have prioties that do not match the priorities listed in
the Packages files in the debian archive. Since the debian installer
uses these priorities to decide what usbs to install, this can result in
breakage like bug #215444.

In that case, busybox-cvs-udeb was incorrectly included on the cd (see bug
#215469). Then its priority was raised from extra to standard. This
completly broke the debian installer.

We are going to work around that bug by removing busybox-cvs-udeb from
the archive (which should have happened anyway; #215944). However, this
is symptomatic of a deeper problem in debian-cd, which can break the
whole install, and needs to be fixed.
