An upcoming addition of the disk-image target to several series files will
required some explanation. Without comment support in series files that
is not possible. This patch adds support for comments in series files.
* Inject a proxy into the build providing a snapshot view of the package repo.
When the REPO_SNAPSHOT_STAMP variable is set, the auto/build script will attempt
to launch a transparent HTTP proxy on port 8080, and insert an iptables rule to
redirect all outgoing HTTP requests to this proxy.
The proxy, contained in the `magic-proxy` Python script, examines each request
and silently overrides those pointing to InRelease files or files that are
listed in InRelease files. It will instead provide the contents of the requested
file as it was at REPO_SNAPSHOT_STAMP, by downloading the corresponding asset
"by hash".
* Use series files with dependency handling to generate hook symlinks dynamically
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, and prior, introduce explicit ordering and dependency
handling for scripts through the use of `series` files and an
explicit syntax for dependency specification.
Whilst configs are sources, the variables are not exported into
the environment by default. Thus when casper hook is executed, it had
no idea that it should generate UUID.
Remove wants from local-fs.target, add wants from the uuid device instead.
Tested by applying these changes from pre-pivot-root by modifying
/root files in place whilst booting with break=bottom.
Minimize the number of manually installed packages in images by marking
dependencies of metapackages as automatically installed.
Squashed commits:
* minimize-manual.py: Followup with some cleanup, correct permissions
* fixup: Do not assume current directory
* Reorganize minimal-manual file location.
Installing policyrcd-script-zg2 doesn't quite do this because of the way
that live-build installs its own temporary version of policy-rc.d. The
only remotely sensible way I can see to deal with this is to create the
symlink manually.
* 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.
- Do not run apt-get update (which can bring in package lists if we are
unlucky wrt publisher schedules).
- Run apt-get clean to clear out downloaded debs of curtin/casper and
dependencies.
- Do not install user-setup.
- Use the core snap from the base filesystem if present.
* ubuntu-cpc: Generate the root image contents once, and use it for both the
-root.tar.xz and the .squashfs.
* ubuntu-cpc: Generate -root.tar.xz with --xattrs.
There can only be one model assertion, so we don't need to disambiguate them.
This also brings us in line with the behaviour of `snap prepare-image`, and
consistency is nice.
This also splits up the preparation in to two functions, so that images that
want to use a custom model assertion but don't have any snaps to preinstall
don't end up with the core snap installed.
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.
* Only shell out to set $account when we need to use it.
* Reduce scope of $account to make it local to the function
* Fix indenting within an 'if' block
