Bug#666766: debian-installer: 00CDMountPoint apt configuration file has an incorrect syntax
Package: debian-installer
Severity: normal
Hello maintainers of the debian-installer,
First of all, thank you for your hard work.
The apt configuration file /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/00CDMountPoint looks like
generated by d-i [1].
Its syntax is not entirely correct, which causes annoying warnings for those
people who use cupt package manager.
Now it's:
| Acquire::cdrom {
| mount "/media/cdrom";
| }
| Dir::Media::MountPath "/media/cdrom";
apt.conf(5) require semicolons after closing parentheses as well, so the right
syntax would be:
| Acquire::cdrom {
| mount "/media/cdrom";
| };
| Dir::Media::MountPath "/media/cdrom";
(note the semicolon in the third line).
I wanted to provide a patch but couldn't find the file in the sources of d-i
[2]. Please let me know anything else I can do to have this fixed in the wheezy's
debian-installer.
