Dear maintainers,
Please provide a method to allow the installer to ignore the 'Valid-Until'
field for repositories during install. Currently, one can tell Apt/Aptitude
directly to do this via:
# apt-get -o Acquire::Check-Valid-Until="false" update
# apt-get upgrade
But there is no way to preseed this or to tell the installer only (not the
target image) to do this.
The option could be something similar to the "allow unauthenticated
packages" preseed option:
d-i debian-installer/allow_unauthenticated boolean true
So, perhaps something like this:
d-i debian-installer/ignore_valid_until boolean true
