[00:38] <antarus> cjwatson: :(
[16:53] <pmatulis> how do i install a package to be used at the partitioning stage?  would this work?:
[16:53] <pmatulis> d-i partman/early_command string apt-install gdisk
[16:54] <pmatulis> (debugging preseed files can take such a long time i thought someone could propel me forward)
[17:03] <cjwatson> apt isn't available at partitioning because the base system hasn't even been installed yet
[17:03] <cjwatson> you can use modules=something to install udebs
[17:04] <cjwatson> but you have to have made sure the appropriate things are actually available in udeb form first
[17:04] <cjwatson> best read something like the d-i internals documentation
[17:06] <pmatulis> alright thanks.  doesn't look easy
[17:54] <infinity> fwiw, there's no gdisk udeb, likely because you're expected to use parted, like everything else.
[17:55] <infinity> pmatulis: Is there a reason parted won't work for your usecase, or is it just that you're more familiar with the fdisk/sfdisk UIs?
[17:58] <pmatulis> infinity: i was just pointed to parted by someone else, silly me
[20:43] <bdmurray> xnox: Could you have a look at bug 1301720?
