* lubuntu: Select lubuntu-gtk-core task as well, so we get the HWE filter
applied to the explicit dependencies it has on Xorg-recommended packages.
* lubuntu: Manually install some packages that fall out due to the above.
When no channel is given for a pre-seeded snap, the channel
should be stable/ubuntu-XX.YY to match Ubuntu policy.
This patch adds the LB_DISTRIBUTION var to config/{binary,chroot}
to have a common way of determining the Ubuntu XX.YY version
number between hooks and auto/build.
mirror (BASE_SEED.minimal-remove) and putting it into the livefs build as
filesystem.manifest-minimal-remove. It's intended for ubiquity to read
this file as a list of packages to remove when doing a 'minimal' desktop
installation.
* live-build/auto/config: Reinstate hostname filtering for "*.buildd", which
is the correct match for non-lxd builders, and add "lp-*" for the lxd ones.
* live-build/auto/config: Fix incorrect quoting causing a skipped if statement
in non-live ubuntu-server builds since sometime in mid-October of last year.
Cloud images created from the 'ubuntu-cpc' project use lzma initramfs
compression for the initial initramfs shipped in the image; this is the
default for livecd-rootfs. When a user updates the initramfs (or installs
a new kernel) on a running instance created from a cloud image they will
get gzip compression, which is the default shipped in initramfs-tools.
With this patch the compression method used to create the initramfs in
the initial cloud images will match the compression menthod used when
the end-user creates/updates an initramfs, namely gzip compression.
We run germinate during configure, and read from each resulting <seed>.snaps
file (expanded from STRUCTURE) to find out which snaps to seed. This is written
to config/seeded-snaps, which is read during build to download each one.
