(When replying to this mail, please reply *only* to debian-live@lists.debian.org) Hi, I am proposing the removal of debian-installer-launcher from Debian as this software generally gives bad user experience and does not see the levels of testing required for us to ensure it is of reasonable quality. I know that there will be derivatives based on live-build that might include this tool, but we'd like instead for this to be something that's handled by documentation. This means letting the user know that they should reboot and start the installer from the boot menu as opposed to from the desktop. If there is anyone that really really wants to keep debian-installer-launcher in the archives, please follow up on Debian bug #844611. This package is orphaned and you would have to take over as the primary maintainer of the package. It is not going to be included in the official Debian Live images for the release of stretch. Note that this is *only* the package that launches the Debian installer from *within* the running live system. live-wrapper and live-build will continue to provide boot menu entries to launch the Debian installer (both text-mode and graphical) directly. Thanks, Iain.
