IMNSHO the installer is busted. But mentioning that was a no-no.
Have you actually ever reported a bug against debian-installer for this
behaviour though? I'm guessing they would first ask for the install log
that it writes into root's home directory.
If you have, can you tell us the bug number?
If you haven't, I think you should. Perhaps phrase it as "I don't
understand why assistive technologies are enabled on every install I do,
can you tell me please?"
Thanks,
Andy
I'd file a new bug, if i could but bugs.debian.org thinks I'm a spammer
and rejects it. Paranoia is fine in today's world, but do ID like the
banks do when you try to use a new firefox, send a code you must return
to prove you are who you say would be a good start, As is, I can't even
get close enough to read them and drive crashes have long since erased
any reference I might have recorded from then. What am I supposed to do,
paint them on the wall? I bought two new 2T Seagates to install
bookworm on, spent a week copying almost 26 years worth of my personal
history to them, 2 weeks later both of them died, going off line in the
middle of the night, so I lost stuff that went back to Feb. 98. So that
started my saga with bookworm which has been the 5th great
disappointment in my life.
The first 4 were burying my first wife, and one at a time, the three
children she gave me.
