This page tracks problems with the DebianInstaller daily developmental builds on a daily basis. If you are using a daily build and it breaks, check here before filing a bug report.

This is not intended as a replacement for the BTS, just a quick list of the most pressing issues of the day. This page is maintained by the d-i developers. We only list issues here that affect many users. If you feel an issue should be added, please ask on #debian-boot on irc.debian.org or send an e-mail to debian-boot@lists.debian.org.

Note

The issues listed below do not affect the official stable release; see the errata instead:

Official releases and weekly builds for the testing distribution are in general also not affected. The exception to this rule is when an issue is caused not by a component of the installer, but by a regular package and that package is retrieved from a network mirror during the installation.

See also the errata for the last official release for the testing distribution:

Also, daily builds for one or more architectures sometimes fail, in which case daily built images may be unavailable or outdated. Check the [http://people.debian.org/~joeyh/d-i/build-logs.html daily builds overview] to see if a daily build is current or failing.
