commit a993592 introduced an additional call to create_manifest
(and snap-seed-parse) to write binary/boot/filesystem.packages. This
caused duplicate snap lines in the qcow manifest. This is because the
live-build/auto/binary code assumes that after 'lb binary' is run the
filesystem.packages will only have debs and it calls snap-seed-parse to
add them to the file. The commit changed filesystem.packages in the
ubuntu-cpc uefi binary hook to include debs and snaps.
This patch keeps the intent of the prior patch, updating the
filesystem.packages file for the content of the uefi disk image, but
only writes a listing of debian packages to match the expected content
of filesystem.packages. The snaps will still be added in generic code
in live-build/auto/build.
This patch currently only applies to the "ubuntu-cpc" project.
More and more logic has been going into the hook scripts to decide under which conditions they should run or not. As we are moving to parallelized builds of image sets, this will get even more complicated. Base hooks will have to know which image sets they belong to and modification of the dependency chain between scripts will become more complicated and prone to errors, as the number of image sets grows.
This patch introduces explicit ordering and dependency handling for scripts through the use of `series` files and an explicit syntax for dependency specification.
2.02+dfsg1-5ubuntu5 grub will automatically fall back to booting with an
initrd if one is available, so we can now always attempt initramfsless
boot for cloud images which almost always works and causes only minimal
increase in boot speed for cases where it does not.
don't want installed by default. Some are tools that aren't needed for
non-interactive use; some are libraries whose reverse-dependencies
will have already been removed; and one, open-vm-tools, should only be
included in images that are targeted to VMWare (which is not the case
for any of the current minimal images), rather than being included
directly in the cloud-image seed.
