Package: partman-auto-lvm
Severity: important

Dear maintainer,

When using Automated installation of Debian with preseeding [1], the
installer is supposed to keep the interaction with the user at a mimimum.

With buster, when using auto mode [2], the installer now stops and
prompts the debconf screen `partman-auto-lvm/guided_size`.

This debconf screen shouldn't be visible with auto and partman-auto.

I think that the problem was introduced with the MR !1 [3] in
partman-auto-lvm. I tried to have a look myself but my knowledge of d-i
and partman-auto is not enough to fix it.

The preseed file I've used is attached to this email.

The installation was booted from PXE (using netboot/amd64 images)
started with the following parameters:

url=http://example.org/preseed.cfg
auto

Adding:

  d-i partman-auto-lvm/guided_size string max

To the preseed file solve the issue.

I think it would be nice to include this line in the preseed example
file in https://www.debian.org/releases/buster/example-preseed.txt.

Right, the suggestion to add that to the preseed example was perfect; thanks.

This has been fixed in the installation-guide package, version 20190622
(currently in stable) has the fix.
However, https://www.debian.org/releases/buster/example-preseed.txt
still does not have it.

So CC'ing debian-www for assistance

I've had a look at the www-master.debian.org
I see that the installation guide has been generated on 20190623 but the 
example-preseed.txt file has date 20190324.

I guess something went wrong with that file, and since there has not been 
changes in the installation guide since then, the build has not been retried.

In our cron job, I've temporarily removed the part where it checks if we need to 
build or not the guide, to force a rebuild today, and thus have logs to see what 
happens to that file.

I'll have a look later today to the logs and will update the bug.

Kind regards,

Sadly, that did not fix the problem ...
