Package: libcairo-directfb2-udeb Version: 1.4.14-1 Severity: serious Tags: d-i Justification: Breaks debian-installer
I just tested the graphical installer with the new libraries and I'm afraid there's a serious regression. It looks like old screen content is not getting "wiped" when new elements get displayed. As cairo is the only library to have changed recently, I'm fairly certain that the cause is there, possibly related to the breaking out of libpixman. I've uploaded some screenshots to show the issue. Initial screen after boot (no problems): - http://people.debian.org/~fjp/tmp/d-i/cairo-regression1.png After scrolling up in the list previously selected lines should not be red: - http://people.debian.org/~fjp/tmp/d-i/cairo-regression2.png After scrilling down to English again, the red partly disappears, except for the two thin lines around Dutch and a line in the left margin: - http://people.debian.org/~fjp/tmp/d-i/cairo-regression3.png The next screen still shows text from the previous one ("Choose a language:" and the "dot" under the s in "Based": - http://people.debian.org/~fjp/tmp/d-i/cairo-regression4.png This is the clearest example. It should only be showing a progress bar, but instead still has the full previous dialog and all progress info is printed on top of itself, resulting in the almost black bar: - http://people.debian.org/~fjp/tmp/d-i/cairo-regression5.png Note that the installer used a directfb backend, not X.
