Forum feedback has shown that it's a bit surprising
given the lack of other multimedia applications in
baseline package set; aen@ suggested to leave it out
and hardware support testing requires much more than
that anyways.
The metapackage was fine, the "only one" additional package
was more or less okay, but there came a dozen more so it's
now reasonable to stash these into a separate pkglist.
This change mostly concerns with making icewm flavour
the lean one again.
The goal is to widen the dynamic range of regular image features:
icewm is not a desktop thus can bear withouth systemd-logind
even if a bunch of network-managing-media-mounting crap has been
rigged to depend on it, and ALT domain client should be included
in most builds for convenient testing in SMB environments but can
stay out of this minimal and "different" image.
It also receives the "un-def" kernel flavour (3.8.0 as of today)
which might benefit from the more available testing facility too.
Its branding is also simplified, plain syslinux menu is fine;
in similar vein, refind feature is flipped from icewm-only to
all-but-icewm set of images with its state being good enough
as of refind 0.6.7 and mkimage 0.2.7.
mate-default pulls in mate-minimal and both of them
require packages which are also specified in this
pkglist; thus the pkglist should be pruned to avoid
double work and splits like "mate-vfs is dropped
from 1.5 package set, mate-default is adjusted but
the pkglist references the now-missing package".
The inobvious issue is that while lxde-settings
is required by lxde-common and provided by both
lxde-settings-{altlinux,upstream}, we can't just
add the needed one via PACKAGES since the LISTS'
deps are expanded already with -upstream taking
lexicographical precedence.
This might become more serious if/when there are
several useful packages, -upstream isn't AFAIK
(thanks gns@ for explanation).
Citing the initial comment: "lxterminal is reportedly
sub-par (gns@) but official (aen@)"; the functionality
PoV finally won.
Terminus fonts added to account for presets.
See also #28567.
It'd be better for this commit to appear before 0.9.7
(and clobber the original one) but at least the added
functionality has been tested; time to generalize it.
Once upon a time the first and only ethernet interface
on a Linux system used to be known under the name of eth0;
but years passed and the systemd shadow has drawn closer
even to the seemingly remote areas like interface names.
In short, it might get named e.g. enp0s3 (a more human
friendly name of course) and the exact name is to be
figured out in runtime as well.
Sigh.
Let's provide the official terminal emulator as the reference one,
and those preferring others are welcome to include these either.
(to some extent this commit is biased towards regular.mk though)
- added destination homeros-nano.iso yields minimal
speaking image;
- added "homeros" feature contain scripts appropriate
for general Homeros functions but need further development.
It's not e17-default alone right now, gnome-icon-theme package
appears requisite at the moment so that menus and IBar aren't
half-empty regarding graphics.
Thanks aris@ for the advice and lots of patience with me.
See http://www.altlinux.org/Регулярные_сборки_образов
for the idea behind this set of images; in short, it's
*not* a bunch of polished end-user distros in a moment
but rather to facilitate Sisyphus package base testing
in as-is state during branch pre-release time.
These are out there in Sisyphus and should be used
instead of copious lines in a package list.
Thanks sem@ for proposing gnome-icon-theme to supplement
the lack of icons in the default theme; note that tango
set doesn't quite cut it, even with extras.
Thunar -> thunar; xfcalendar -> orage
As was proposed by Alexey Varakin in community@,
whdd was built for ALT Linux by drool@ and pauli@
with some help by torabora@ and mithraen@; looks like
it's a worthy addition to the rescue kit.
While ildar@ has some reason for the slimmer image
the somewhat standalone one is documented in examples
for offline use, ruining it in-place is not an option.
Let's just do a split (and lose a target-specific variable
example in favour of a commodity pkglist by the way; oh well).
EFI/UEFI is mostly about partitioning and bootloader setup,
at least from a distribution's point of view; so the
appropriate tools should be handy and firmware interface
module should not be exterminated from installer images
but get autoloaded instead.
Please note that while there exists 32-bit x86 EFI
we don't bother with it at the time being: it's relevant
to some irrelevant Xeon systems as well as for the older
Intel Macs (<2008) that are long out of fashion anyways.
That is, initially we deal with x86_64 EFI only.
Actually just a split of livecd-webkiosk into the kiosk related
part and generic livecd firefox setup (turning off queries that
are pretty useless in that environment).
