Package: env-preseed
Version: 1.48
Severity: normal

Hello,

Giving mirror/http/proxy= on the PXE kernel command line (i.e. giving an
empty value) doesn't seem to be feeding debconf: the question is still
getting asked. We also tried mirror/http/proxy="" with the same result.

More precisely, the pxe configuration is

APPEND ramdisk_size=14984 locale=fr_FR.UTF-8 console-keymaps-at/keymap=fr-latin9 console-setup/layoutcode=fr netcfg/get_hostname=inrescuemode netcfg/get_domain=ens-lyon.fr mirror/country=fr mirror/http/hostname=ftp.fr.debian.org mirror/http/directory=debian vga=normal initrd=debian/squeeze/i386/debian-installer/i386/initrd.gz rescue/enable=true --

PXE can easily be tested by using e.g.

wget -r --no-parent http://ftp.debian.org/debian/dists/wheezy/main/installer-i386/current/images/netboot/

kvm -boot n -net user,tftp=ftp.fr.debian.org/debian/dists/wheezy/main/installer-i386/current/images/netboot/,bootfile=/pxelinux.0 -net nic

It is then a matter of updating
debian-installer/i386/boot-screens/txt.cfg

I can't reproduce the issue either, even with squeeze, thus closing it
with the squeeze version. Just FTR, I have attached the txt.cfg I have
used to test it.

Thanks for the ping,
Samuel
