That seems to be the problem. See, from main-menu.c:
/* Returns a the text of the menu entry for PACKAGE (in a buffer
* that will persist until the next call of the function) */
const char *menu_entry(struct debconfclient *debconf, di_system_package *package)
{
char question[menu_entry_maxlen];
static char buf[menu_entry_maxlen];
snprintf(question, sizeof(question), "debian-installer/%s/title", package->p.package);
if (!debconf_metaget(debconf, question, "Description")) {
strncpy(buf, debconf->value, menu_entry_maxlen);
return buf;
}
/* The following fallback case can go away once all packages
have transitioned to the new form. */
di_log(DI_LOG_LEVEL_INFO, "Falling back to the package description for %s", package->p.package);
if (package->p.short_description)
strncpy(buf, package->p.short_description, menu_entry_maxlen);
else
buf[0]='\0';
return buf;
}
I think that Holger will probably see something like "Falling back to
the package description for espeakup-udeb" in /var/log/syslog. This
should appear when espeakup-udeb is loaded, which should happen when
main-menu is first loaded as espeakup-udeb is on the netboot ISO
image, so loaded as early as possible.
Holger, could you check this? Just need to go to VT2 after booting the
installer and go back to the main menu from (I guess) the first
question you get.
The main menu entry then defaults to the short description of
espeakup-udeb and guess what it is?
Package: espeakup-udeb
Section: debian-installer
Architecture: any
Priority: extra
Depends: ${shlibs:Depends}, ${misc:Depends}, espeak-data-udeb, alsa-base-udeb [linux-any], alsa-utils-udeb [linux-any], libnss-files-udeb
Description: Configure the speech synthesizer voice
This is a statically linked version of espeakup, optimized for use on
installation media.
XC-Package-Type: udeb
XB-Installer-Menu-Item: 1050
The same wording than the menu entry...:-)
So, the fix seems to be renaming the debconf template in espeakup.
