generally speaking, the people who do the most work on FAI use only 
Debian and don't check Launchpad for bugs. There are a few (as in about 
one and a half) people who work on FAI in Ubuntu, but they don't always 
have time to deal with problems in these constant new non-LTS releases. ;)

I had a look at your bugs. 705624 is pretty much Ubuntu-specific, yes. 
710311 is going to affect Debian FAI in the future as the same 
transition has taken place in Debian unstable.

As for 710313, the problem is that in Debian aptitude is part of the 
base system, but in Ubuntu it isn't. Therefore adding aptitude to the 
depends of fai-quickstart alone won't solve the problem, 
/etc/fai/NFSROOT might also need to be changed. Nevertheless, it would 
seem reasonable to me for fai-quickstart to depend on aptitude even in 
Debian, so you should feel free to send that bit on to the Debian BTS.

Michael
