I've built a test image here including -p-u and I am happy with it: http://jenkins.kfreebsd.eu/jenkins/job/debian-installer_jessie-kfreebsd/ws/debian-8.4-kfreebsd-amd64-CD-1.iso SHA-256: dae659788f2fd7d92e59a0a62f3144887d7a44f308703a93a46d3b7bca10ab2e I'd encourage anyone to test that if they can. I think we can begin the release process now: debian-installer is uplodaed, but must be installed, which may be automatic I'm not sure: https://buildd.debian.org/status/package.php?p=debian-installer&suite=jessie-kfreebsd Then jessie-kfreebsd-p-u must be copied into jessie-kfreebsd. This is probably a good time because the official suites are about to freeze p-u for a point release next weekend. debian-cd tools need some symlinks to alias jessie-kfreebsd to jessie, and another small bugfix may be needed. If the jessie-kfreebsd suite is ready in time, maybe the kfreebsd CD images could be built along with the 8.4 point release. I'll start to ping the relevant teams now.
