I could reproduce this bug with the latest _Sarge_ build. It sound like the same bug with #250376. But I'm not sure, because you mentioned the sid_d-i which AFAIK, has already come with the fixed version of 'languagechooser'. Anyway, could you please make/check the following changes in /etc/console-tools/config for confirmation: - Comment out the line "SCREEN_FONT_MAP": #SCREEN_FONT_MAP=iso15 - Add the following line APP_CHARSET_MAP=iso15 After saving the changes, do a '/etc/init.d/console-screen.sh restart' and check the result of "dpkg-reconfigure popularity-contest" command as Christian suggested. -- roktas
