Bug#346339: installation-reports: Missing Chinese characters in zh_CN installation
Package: installation-reports
Severity: important
Hello d-i developers,
A user recently used the 20060104 daily CDs to do installation in
simplified Chinese (zh_CN), and he noticed there are characters missing
in the text displayed by d-i.
He sent me screenshots compared with etch beta1, which is fine (all
characters are displayed). He has screenshots for three steps:
hostname, disk-partitioning and main-menu. However when looking at it,
the hostname screenshot is exactly the same as the problem I encountered
in Ubuntu installer several months ago [1]. So I think it may be
exactly the same bug, and you don't need new screenshots (there is one
in the Ubuntu bug report). But of course, if you still want them, I
sure will paste them somewhere for you to see.
I don't really know which package to file against so I used
installation-reports. Maybe it should be localechooser (according to
the Ubuntu fix)? Please reassign as appropriate.

Thanks for the great work on d-i.
