A few more leftover libraries tend to hang around after
purging extra alterator packages that have fired already
during installation stage3; this change might hurt someone,
please do notify if that is the case (OTOH one isn't forced
to use it or to inherit intermediate targets that do so).
This feature operates LIVE_* variables specifically
(as opposed to the more generic THE_* ones) so +alsa
isn't exactly suitable but reusing the pkglist that's
just been factored out is fine.
Split package lists:
- base alsa packages (also needed in pulseaudio-based installations)
- additional alsa packages (needed only if not using pulseaudio)
- pulseaudio packages
live-webkiosk.iso regressed into trying to boot off the local disk
immediately, the exact cause is not yet discovered but this one
has popped in build trace (distcfg.mk) already.
Desktop images are still likely to depend on it though.
There were quite a few things missing:
- packager pseudo for both rpm and hasher;
- proper target (so that i686 or athlon don't confuse people);
- hasher repo for apt so that mkimage would use it too;
- last but not least, a friendly bootstrap message! ;-)
THE_* and friends are all unneeded for live builder image;
this commit makes dev feature basically incompatible with
install2 feature (which relies on the conventional behaviour
of main subprofile), will have to think it all over if the
combination of these two ever becomes needed.
The problem with initial implementation (commit 62e7e9c)
is that there's no systemd-services package in p7/branch
thus apt complains about an attempt to remove something
that doesn't even exist in the first place.
Aimed at live images at first but should cover installers as well.
This has been brewing for quite some time and while the proper
implementation is considerably more complex (and hard to do)
looks like there's demand for the particular important use case,
namely LiveCDs for Russian users, so this code has been shared
with a few people before merge.
E19 would ask the user if they want to shut down
when facing power button event; it won't get a chance
though as the system will hurl down immediately as per
acpid-events-power package provided configuration.
This should avoid ruining principle of the least surprise
with ROOTPW_EMPTY=0 or ROOTPW_EMPTY=n actually *enabling*
empty root password; overriding an already set "1" with "0"
becomes possible either.
This one has been inspired by these guys:
http://www.informatimago.com/linux/emacs-on-user-mode-linux.htmlhttps://raymii.org/s/blog/Vim_as_PID_1_Boot_to_Vim.html
It's aimed at building images running their main userspace
piece instead of ramdisk's init, that means PID=1, UID=0.
Mostly fun of course but it suddenly became interesting with
kernel IP autoconfiguration and e.g. elinks running this way
(NB: requires patched make-initrd 0.8.8 at the moment to get
resolver configured).
And startup times are way better than sysvinit and systemd combined!
This function's got its argument order chosen for "aesthetical"
reason of $(2) following $(1) in the macros but the logical order
is exactly the opposite: we care for kernel flavour much more than
for module set (which is dependent upon it).
So while silent dropout of kernel-image if KFLAVOURS is set
but KMODULES is empty could be fixed by testing for $(2) only,
it looks like a good time to fix this discrepancy altogether.
stage2 has been thinking it's synonymous with propagator
and used to usurp kernel's belongings either; carefully
tear scripts apart so that kernel feature makes sure
initrd gets generated, and stage2 (which is still all
about propagator) cares for its bits.
xorg-drv-vmware is desirable for guests with X11
but undesirable for text-only ones; let's provide
this knob at least but ideal m-p would figure out
that an image with use/x11 and use/vmguest/vmware
should receive this intersection either.
Maybe firmware feature should be merged into kernel feature
as the firmware binaries added by it are only used by kernel
but let's clean up a bit at a time.
"use/stage2/net-eth use/net-eth" would be common enough
for installers or livecd images to just get these pulled in
together by a convenient shortcut thus reducing confusion
and chances to just forget one of these counterparts.
It looks *ugly* on-screen, at least within regular builds,
even if the screen is 166dpi.
Based on a quick experiment this morning I'd suggest using
fonts-otf-adobe-source-{code,sans}-pro instead -- and it's
available as use/fonts/otf/adobe now, incidentally.
The documentation is still built with it though as a2x/fop look
unhappy otherwise (as in replacing Cyrillic glyphs with "#"s).
Font packages are sprinkled all over the metaprofiles,
let's try and help make their use more systematic.
This is a sort of a feature abuse as it was conceived
for fontconfig setup originally but spawning features
with confusing names looks grim; so let all things fonts
live within a feature named "fonts" for the time being.
There's not much sense in overduplication of documentation
(tends to get stale faster then), still it's not good to
just refer to the code as the PDF/HTML book is less useful
then; maybe drifting towards "recommended" bits with more
"advanced" things being impleentation-defined is better.
That's a part of ALT Linux conveniences: system log
messages at tty12 (helps immensely in case of disk crash
or cable problems as running anything, including utilities
to view logs, becomes painful to impossible in such cases).
systemd lacks this kind of setup out-of-box for sure
so zerg@ hacked a substitute together; just pull that in.
fonts-ttf-droid have been superseded by fonts-ttf-google-droid-sans
in Sisyphus which might be lacking; I've considered replacing it
with Fira anyways, so let's just do that.
This needs further refinement regarding p7/t7 specifically:
NM behaviour regarding defaults differs in sisyphus and this
has led to livecds booting with DHCP networking but installed
systems booting without configured interfaces.
Non-GUI packages moved to base+nm pkglist to enable standalone
installation of those; and GTK bits left in desktop+nm for use
by images lacking their own new and improved(tm) variant.
Note that both GNOME3 and KDE4 aren't lacking anymore.
This is a similar trouble: p7/t7 branches had
plasma-applet-networkmanager while sisyphus has
switched to kde4-plasma-nm* (there's a bunch of
subpackages there, basically all of them desired).
The current branches lack both firefox 29+ and
firefox-classic_theme_restorer, correspondingly;
sisyphus has those; the feature shouldn't pose
any problems in both cases, should it?
