Hallo Jörn, Vielen Dank, lustiges Problem… Jörn Heissler <deb-install-bugs-2025@wulf.eu.org> (2025-06-07): > installing trixie using PXE netboot no longer works for me. > > The installation fails with "anna[8234] busybox wget does not support > https" right after the "Loading additional components" step. > > The initrd from > https://deb.debian.org/debian/dists/trixie/main/installer-amd64/20250515/images/ > contains "busybox-udeb 1:1.37.0-4 amd64" and "wget-udeb 1.25.0-2 amd64". > > https://deb.debian.org/debian/dists/trixie/main/debian-installer/binary-amd64/Packages.xz > however references the newer busybox-udeb version "1:1.37.0-5". > > The debian installer downloads and installs the new busybox-udeb, > which replaces the /bin/wget utility. Oh, I don't think I've ever thought much about possible upgrades there… Ouch. We've been using GNU wget for close to 10 years, and I suppose there's absolutely no point in keeping the stripped-down wget in busybox-udeb. https://salsa.debian.org/installer-team/debian-installer/-/commit/2f00c51a7ead982ae1cd71bee06c8416890196b6 Unless someone disagrees within the next few days, I'll probably adjust the config in git, something along those lines I suppose (totally untested): diff --git a/debian/config/pkg/udeb b/debian/config/pkg/udeb index 230dadc1d..9cfdb6e3c 100644 --- a/debian/config/pkg/udeb +++ b/debian/config/pkg/udeb @@ -992,7 +992,7 @@ CONFIG_FEATURE_TFTP_PUT=y # CONFIG_TUNCTL is not set # CONFIG_FEATURE_TUNCTL_UG is not set CONFIG_VCONFIG=y -CONFIG_WGET=y +# CONFIG_WGET is not set # CONFIG_FEATURE_WGET_LONG_OPTIONS is not set CONFIG_FEATURE_WGET_STATUSBAR=y CONFIG_FEATURE_WGET_FTP=y I'm not immediately seeing anything else that would “depends on WGET” but I'm really not familiar with busybox.
