According to jenkins.debian.net/view/edu the combi-server installation
seems to fail cause the chroot can't be set up.
Installation of squeeze-test-combi-server seems to be broken as well --
due to the same reason?
As far as Wheezy is concerned I managed to install the chroot (image as
of feb 07, doing some steps by hand after broken installation) using an
ugly workaround in debian-edu-ltsp -- see below. This worked cause the
only reason for failing is IMO the problem with dictionaries and ispell
packages. There seems to be an empty entry in debconf for choosing the
ispell variant, but loads of packages are available. Fixing the debconf
database seems to solve the problem.
BTW this multitude of language related packages is sort of strange. Is
it really required to install loads of l10n packages (among others for
iceweasel, kde, LibeOffice) if only one language is chosen? Wouldn't
d-i install the right ones nowadays by using the provided
language/country choice?
(Will report other ltsp related problems separatly.)

As the modified debian-edu-ltsp script was executed _after_ a broken
installation, all configuration steps normally done inside the ltsp
chroot during finish-install are missing -- which would of course be
different if the modified version of debian-edu-install would be in the
d-e-c package.
After running the script _manually_ this is the output of
/usr/lib/debian-edu-config/testsuite/ltsp:

(Actually, there are much more config issues -- reason see above.)
Could someone confirm this? Other ideas?
