Bug#255012: debian-installer: d-i tc1 still has broken busybox, unusable on all sparc machines made last 5 years

[Christian Perrier <bubulle@debian.org>]

Quoting Blars Blarson (blarson@blars.org):
> Package: debian-installer
> Severity: grave
> Justification: renders package unusable

> d-i tc1 downloaded from

> still has the old broken busybox, when the fixed one has been in sid

> ultra-sparc systems, so all cdroms other than the mini are unusable.

tc1 has been officially abandoned

Given that these sparc-related problems are well-known and adressed, I
don't really understand why a RC bug is filed, then.
