Package: base-config
Version: 2.20
Severity: important

In the second-stage installation, base-config fallbacks to English and
doesn't use Turkish.  I've noticed that if I generate the UTF-8 Turkish
locale (tr_TR.UTF-8), no problem occurs.

Regarding the locale issues, Turkish has somewhat an exceptional
situation.  It has two different locales:

  ISO mode:	tr_TR (or tr_TR.ISO-8859-9) -- also known as latin5
  UTF-8 mode:	tr_TR.UTF-8

Although we use UTF-8 charmap in Turkish po files, we intentionally
choose tr_TR (ISO-8859-9) locale in languagechooser.  Because UTF-8 mode
has some serious problems (especially in virtual consoles) and ISO mode
is much more mature than UTF-8 mode (I hope the situation will be
improved in future).  So using a single UTF-8 locale in everywhere is
not the proper solution for this problem, though it is the most
straight-forward solution.  What I want is a mechanism to generate both
locales before running the base-config.  For the current case, only the
tr_TR.ISO-8859-9 locale is generated as it should be.  I examined the
termwrap which is responsible for the locale generation in
prebase-config stage.  I think a dirty kludge could be added to the
appropriate portions of termwrap for Turkish, or we could do something
in 'prebase-config' to generate tr_TR.UTF-8 locale.

Changes: 
 base-config (2.21) unstable; urgency=medium
 .
   * Joey Hess
     - Improved the pon menu item's .tst file.
     - Ask apt-setup/cd/another at high priority. Closes: #244577
     - Patch from Frans Pop to work around modules.conf/modules.dep timestamp
       problem that occurs if the time zone configuration during initial
       install moves the timestamps of these files into the future. Then on
       reboot, modules.dep is updated, and ends up having an earlier timestamp
       than modules.conf, which resulted in an error. To fix, touch both files
       after changing time zone. Closes: #246993
     - Add support for jumping around in the menu via a jump-to file that
       the name of a menu item can be written to.
     - Support menu files that are symlinks, as used by debian-edu-install.
   * Denis Barbier
     - Add support for ISO-8859-9 encoding for Turkish.  Closes: #247324
   * Translation updates
     - French by Christian Perrier
