joshkcjwatson: ah, but do you use 'd-i' or 'ubiquity'?18:25
cjwatsonjoshk: should work in either18:27
cjwatsonubiquity uses apt-setup18:27
joshki mean in the preseed file18:28
joshkshould it say ubiquity^Imirror/http/proxy^Istring..18:28
cjwatsonoh18:29
joshkit's okay.. i'll see if this works18:29
cjwatsonit doesn't really make much difference, either should work18:29

cjwatsonevand: take the new strings and substitute Ubuntu for Debian wherever appropriate. http://wiki.ubuntu.com/DistributionDefaultsAndBranding will help with some of the more interesting languages22:47
cjwatson(down at the end)22:48
twbYou can't just do `find -type f -exec sed -s -i s/Debian/Ubuntu/ {} + ?'22:55

cjwatsonsee the page above23:11
cjwatsonlife would be a lot easier if random languages didn't transliterate or decline "Debian"23:11
twbIck23:12
cjwatsonand, while it's sort of useful that Debian and Ubuntu are the same length, it's inconvenient that Debian starts and ends with a consonant while Ubuntu starts and ends with a vowel23:12
cjwatsonheck, s/Debian/Ubuntu/g doesn't even work in English. "a Debian mirror" vs. "an Ubuntu mirror"23:12
twbClearly what is needed is an increasingly baroque regexp that we extend over time23:14
twb>duck<23:14
cjwatsondon't think it hasn't crossed my mind23:14
cjwatsonwhat I've largely tried to do is change the strings upstream to avoid mentioning Debian at all, so we're a lot better off than we used to be - but that's not always reasonable23:16
twbIt occur to me it would also break joeyh@Debian.org23:17
cjwatsonthe corner cases are pretty horrific :)23:20
