I want to clean up the d-i syslog so it's more readable. Right now
there's lots of junk which makes it hard to trace problems. I think it
makes sense to continue having d-i output debug type information in
areas where it's still useful for debugging problems users might report
during an install, and remove debug information for things that have
settled down.
I've made all the changes I mention making locally but haven't committed
them, so speak up if some debugging I propose removing is useful.

These should be kept in the log, it's a broken dependency, that's bad,
plus, we plan to fix all such issues eventually.

These just clutter up the log, are not worth keeping in as long as
libd-i is properly resolving deps, which it has been for a while. Best
to move it inside ENABLE_EXTENSIVE_DEBUG ifdefs.

This is worth keeping, it shows what the installer is doing. Perhaps it
shouldn't be DEBUG, but INFO though.

I think we can do without these, as long as main-menu is properly doing
its thing, so they can join the other commented out debugging aids in
it.

This seems to be main-menu building a menu to select which package to
configure to satisfy the virtual package libdebian-installer4,
discovering there's only one item, and throwing the menu away unused.
Best fix is probably to fix the dependency to not use a virtual package,
and the only such package left is cdebootstrap.

Noting when the priority changes is useful. Is it useful to note when

disagrees?

This is probably worth keeping if only to show that localechooser likes

This is a good example of a bad debug item, it logs this *every* time
the first time main-menu runs a menu item. Fixed.

it builds.

Removed, debconf debugging can be used to show the same thing.

This also seems like debconf debugging could show the same thing too,
removed.

Although why it keeps finding "lo" as a hotpluggable interface I don't
know.

It's worth logging when modules are missing, but not twice, so removed
the first one.

So it does this for every module. The first line is useful (sometimes).
The second line is redundant, removed. The third line is modprobe -v
output. Not sure why we run it -v..

These messages all seem fairly useless, apt-install says what's being

That's really iso-scan, fixed the log function. Since the very next

needed.

this is very useful for debugging issues when modifying the installer,

os-prober has useful debugging messages, but this is not amoung them, removed.

This is a bug of sorts, os-prober tries to load udebs for the various
kernel modules and fails on these since they are variously unavailable
or available under a different name. vfat and msdos are pulled in
through fat-modules which is loaded by partman earlier, but that's only
luck.

Some of this is useful for debugging, would be nice to cut it down
somehow. (Above is 1/4 of total.)

Bug, user-setup-udeb runs before there is a passwd file, so it needs to
deal with that..

I think the first and third lines should be removed. Note that the next bit is
apt-install installing whatever it selected.

Worth keeping just to say why these packages are being installed

I think this title thing is a passthrough issue. Should we remove the
warning, since it is used for passthrough?
