  • Submitting patches for debian-installer

    From Pascal Hambourg@21:1/5 to All on Thu Sep 23 19:50:01 2021
    Hello list,

    I would be glad to submit a few small patches for debian-installer,
    mostly for partman components. What is the preferred way ? Should I file
    bug reports against each package ?

    Also, are there any requirements for non-Linux architecture support
    (Hurd, kFreeBSD) ?

    Thanks.

    Best is to create pull requests on Debian Salsa against the corresponding
    d-i sub-modules:

    https://salsa.debian.org/installer-team/

    You should try not to break them. If in doubt, ask for review on this list.

    I feared to receive this kind of answer. I am not a developper and do
    not have the slightiest idea about how to do this.

    don't worry, filing bugs against individual d-i packages and attaching patches there is also a very fine way of doing this!

    The entire society has no clue what the word freedom means in the context of relating to the world around them. It has degenerated into "my ego first". It is why the entire planet is dying right now.
