It's added to installed system and pulling 200+ megabytes into
LiveCD isn't going to help the image size; the practical limits
being tested by that were 3.0 Gb x86_64 ISO making it impossible
to fit RW partition onto 4 Gb USB Flash ("1 Gb free" test added)
and booting it on a 2 Gb RAM system without "lowmem" option would
fail on ~95% of squashfs-to-RAM loading process or so.
TL;DR: one browser in a *LiveCD* should be still enough these days.
The changes might have been a bunch of one-liners,
these have accumulated though and let these live together:
- add Chromium browser;
- add "LiveCD with sessions" (upon fixing real RO LiveCD mode);
- provide better Bluetooth support out-of-box;
- fixup services (mostly related to "KVM server" checkbox);
- use the renamed "workstation/raccess" pkglist/group;
- demote ClamAV from base component to a checkbox (off by default).
...at least for X11-carrying images; vseleznv@ says he's seen
a conflict with libinput resulting in touchpad disfunction.

Sad to have to do this but until Seamonkey Project
releases something they don't warn against themselves
our users can't be bluntly subjected to using a *known*
vulnerable browser.
First I thought leaving it enabled for some images might be good
for testing but someone has asked if it's going to be fixed
in regular-kde4.iso:
https://bugzilla.altlinux.org/32377
No need to shorten most of the image names now due to #28271:
"ALT" prefix is 6 bytes shorter than "ALT Linux" and this
changes a lot for these particular names (<= 32-byte long)!
This is hopefully the final change regarding trademark
related commit "series" tracking change from ALT Linux
to BaseALT and now to ALT; starterkits get this too.
It appears to be the culprit for the "mouse fell asleep"
problem due to not-so-careful use of autosuspend against
hardware that doesn't implement that correctly.
Let the disable-usb-autosuspend hack remain though as
those wishing to enable powertop service might be helped
by that (I've seen a Logitech mouse willing to exhibit
this problem even in its presence though).
This is a nice utility clamping default power strain
*and* heat generation on intel-based PCs; I was actually
surprised to see it available but not firing off at system
startup time; fix that.
There were two problems:
- the latest pgsql related groups made installation
impossible (yes, that last minute change);
- hardware testing shows that use/stage2/kms is now
requisite as xorg-drv-fbdev might just refuse to work
with what looks like a perfectly good framebuffer...
Do away with them *quick*.
This starts a sort of "server merger" by consuming
both samba4 and hyperv subflavours into checkboxes.
Rationale is pretty clear: environment -- including
hypervisors -- is just an install/run-time variable,
and the set of initial services is another one;
no need to maintain a distinct image for each value
when we've done enough of that to know we can merge.
This is to avoid "unzip.zip" situations with some NICs:
those needing extended firmware package (which is hefty)
can at least install it by hand off the ISO.
*Maybe* a switch to use/firmware will appear reasonable
some day for this image either, don't know yet; this adds
firmware to installer itself (should only be needed if the
storage device used for rootfs *needs* firmware found in
that package as networking setup is omitted from JeOS
installer).
Rationale: it's the minimalistic image for those who know
what they're doing, let's maximize their chances to get it
installed and running by using a recent kernel.
My failure to recognize that it is a "generic" server that
might need some generalization and not an already specialized
one like OpenVZ HN installer had to be fixed up some day;
today is fine.
Basically, let's move package groups ("checkboxes") and alterator
from server-ovz to server, and maybe beef it up a lil' bit more
later; server-ovz is still far from jeos-ovz but the difference
that looks unmergeable is strict sshd control setup that's going
to bite those unsuspecting, so let's leave it for those of us
who are more suspicious of stray ISOs. :)
