If the only bug is the log of base-config, I don't think this is a bug at all; there's no reason that logfiles should be preprocessed for text direction -- that's the whole point of supporting bidi in Unicode, after all. Rather, anyone looking at the logs should be using a bidi-aware terminal or other bidi-capable tools. The fact that we don't have a bidi-capable terminal can probably be regarded as a bug, > The bug suggested enabling the Unicode terminal to 2nd and 3rd > console, also... and this problem is a result of the same bug; but as previously discussed, fixing it would probably raise the memory requirements of the installer and needs to be looked at carefully. -- Steve Langasek postmodern programmer
