Bug#783080: unblock: oldsys-preseed/3.16
Package: release.debian.org
Severity: normal
Tags: d-i
User: release.debian.org@packages.debian.org
Usertags: unblock
Please unblock package oldsys-preseed
This fixes #783019 which is a failure to correctly function on many kirkwood
and orion5x armel platforms. Since this package exists to aid with headless
installs d-i is basically unusable on any affected system, since it will ask
questions on the (non-existent) serial port before enabling the network
install path.
This package only produces udebs.
