You might have meant this as sarcasm, but I do find that for
productivity I tend to eschew the gui. The kinds of things that I can do with a simple shell script -- or a find/grep feeding a loop -- would take *hours* and *hours* to do in the pointing, clicking straitjacket of a pure gui.
Of course, this is a digression from the installer bug, and for
that, may I ask if an installation report has been submitted so that the issue gets fixed?
Debian is supposed to be the pillar, the foundation of Linux. It should not have installation bugs. I can understand advanced bugs that could not have been noticed before, but not simple ones. From what I have heard about Debian, a contributor is not accepted officially till atleast 5 or more years, in order to ensure that what is contributed is of the highest quality level. Debian does not release its distros as often as Ubuntu, in order to ensure more stability. A Debian distro should work out of the box without any setup issues.

Rony.
