 Only glancing at this, this would explain a number of reports we've 
 received regarding suboptimal installations from Live images. It would 
 be great to have fixed in 13.1, and this looks like something that 
 doesn't need any updates of d-i component(s) or d-i itself? I'm usually 
 uploading src:debian-installer on the Monday preceeding point releases, 
 but I'm happy to wait a little in case something else is needed here. 
  
  
 Cheers,
