Package: base-config Version: 2.23 Severity: important Tags: l10n, d-i Hi, After successfully finishing the first stage installation, I entered to base-config. Everthing was fine, i.e. termwrap set the correct console font as indicated in languagechooser/languagelist (ter-916f/iso09 for Turkish), no problems with the debconf messages -- they were all displayed in Turkish. But at the end of base-config, console settings were changed again, due to the following code in termwrap: [...] $@ case $ENCODING in [...] ISO-8859-9) # Unload ISO-8859-9 charset mapping, by loading ISO-8859-1 # instead try_load_charset "$ENCODING" iso01 lat0-sun16 When I retested it, I modified the termwrap code so as to immediately exit after calling the base-config, that is: [...] $@ exit $? case $ENCODING in and I found the console as it should be. I can work on a patch for this problem, but first I should figure out this behaviour. Why does it need to unload the charset mapping at the end of termwrap? Is it something related with the "base-config in first stage installation" facility? Regards, P.S. This problem exist in all latest netinst snapshots (e.g. 20040519 - 20040523). -- roktas
