Package: debian-installer
Severity: grave
Tags: d-i
Justification: renders package unusable

Hi.

When using todays (and few previous days) netboot/mini.iso amd64
snapshot, I am consistently getting segfault when executing "Choose
mirror to install from (menu item)" during expert install.

in the dmesg:

segfault at 0 ip 000000004017c0 sp 0000xxxx error 4 in choose-mirror[4000000+6000]

I do not think this is related to libc6 issues reported in
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=740068

I had no issues with debian 8.5.0 netboot iso.

Regards,
Witold

I've tracked this down and documented the results in #834383, which I've
just uploaded a fix for. I'm closing this bug report accordingly; thanks
for your investigations and sorry for not getting back to you sooner.
