Package: debian-installer
Version: 40r2
Severity: important
I tried to install debian with this installer CD:
debian-40r2-i386-businesscard.iso 03-Jan-2008 01:43 32M
The GUI installer works but the default one fails bootstrap and
complains that there is missing gpgv which is needed to verify packages.
Thanks
Michal

The package used to verify during debootstrap (the very first stage of base
system installation) is available on the CD and must have been installed.
However, IIRC the error message when the verification fails may be a bit
confusing: it does not fail because the package is not there, but because
the there was a problem with the data received from the mirror.
Anyway, as the issue is resolved I'm closing your report.
Cheers,
FJP
