My gut feeling is that we're not going to see glib2's
messages a lot within installer environment anyways.
And there's a forgotten /usr/share/X11/locale/ too.
An installer needs video playback acceleration
when it has some content to show and some means to;
as long as these are not supported just drop this
unconditionally.
These are only needed for alterator-vm when making
LUKS encrypted partitions; ideally the extra libraries
would be omitted automatically when luks isn't included.
The mixin concept and name has been borrowed from Ruby
language -- it's a kind of thing that can be added to
more or less whatever suitable; the problem it tries
to solve is that incrementally building up the image
configuration breaks when one would like to change
something that's been configured in early enough so that
grafting early will warrant a lot of duplication later on
but inheriting too much things that need to be changed
gets too much hackery in.
It started while trying to build an installer image
using configuration bits and pieces collected while
bringing an installable LiveCD together: there are
just too many livecdish things in a LiveCD to try
and rebase the actual desktop configuration things
onto an installer, so putting these into a mixin
to be reused within both livecd and installer
seems the way to go.
Looks like today's xorg won't autoload radeon_drv but
insists on ati_drv falling back to fbdev if it's not there;
FlightGear runs definitely slow on C-60 APU with that.
I didn't specify ati since it pulls r128 and mach64 modules in
which are rather useless in this context (accelerated 3D graphics).
Burn.app won't list a USB DVDRW drive with CD-RW inside
(NOT_FOUND), and its README states explicitly that wodim
is not supported yet.
Mixer.app would start with three knobs none of which would
actually change any mixer channel.
This time it autostarts using livecd-fgfs and primus
if possible; firefox and GUI mixer are the notable loss
but the clarity of "boot into FlightGear" should sort of
compensate for that.
Ah, and Tu-154 by default.
Current Sisyphus' xorg-drv-intel works somewhat better
with recent kernel drivers on my HD4000 GPU, and icewm
is not compositing at all; providing another test/backup
image fitted with newer kernel should do no harm.
This package has been built and recommended by cas@;
it requires Qt5 which hasn't been needed for anything else
included in regular builds so far so let's extend kde4 one
to begin with.
lightdm isn't going to turn off the system properly
with no systemd-logind around ("for no good reason",
that is); good ol' wdm for installed system and the
similarly ol' autologin just work though.
nodm is not gonna cut it since user PATH is weird
within the session breaking livecd-install by putting
/usr/sbin before /usr/bin while it shouldn't be there
in the first place.
Looks like nodm doesn't reset the PATH set within
/etc/rc.d/init.d/functions which results in sbin
path components hitting user's PATH; livecd-install
which uses consolehelper was what broke first for me.
And this link should illustrate some of the problems
tackled by this kind of scripts...
Servers can POST much longer so having to play hide and seek
with a boot menu isn't going to be exactly entertaining;
let's bump the delay to something comparable at least.
Thanks hiddenman@ for mentioning the obvious-but-unnoticed.
As it happens regular-rc testing has shown that cinnamon,
gnome3 and kde4 flavours included NM via their pkglists
and dependencies (which used to result in live feature
enabling NetworkManager service wholesale when found);
now when handling default services has become more strict
it became apparent that these images have got their LiveCD
mode running without network by default (installation does
set that up though).
It looks like an easy way to just stick +nm into .regular-desktop
dependencies but then razorqt, sugar, xmonad would get NM which
is not what they're gonna handle; e17/e18 too.
This has to be present with default RPM macros, otherwise:
rpmdb: /home/altlinux/tmp: No such file or directory
rpmdb: unable to create temporary backing file

We don't really want to disable NFS portmapper completely
but having some extra root code listening to the world is
really unneccessary unless explicitly required.
Applying "control rpcbind local", thanks ldv@ for advice.
50-setup-network was a hasty hack (surprise!) that used to do
what net and net-eth features have been created to do since;
just drop the duplicated crufty code.
Unconditional resolver setup isn't done now: those with static
setup are better off doing it explicitly, and those with DHCP
should be fine already.
NB: /etc/hosts *is* fine within setup package *but* hasher will
overwrite it with a copy of host's one; let's reset contents
to initial at least until hasher gets fixed and the fix is
rather deployed in the wild.
There was an extra DISABLED=no line written to interface configurarion
that's been superceded by the subsequently added parametrized one;
just drop it.
Thanks glebfm@ for spotting the garbage.
Well actually it shouldn't -- except for rEFInd the boot manager:
branding graphics within the build environment are used to add
a single background image to EFI/refind/icons/ thus the change.
Wonder how this got lost though as this screenshot:
http://en.altlinux.org/File:Altlinux-rescue-uefi-memtest86.jpg
clearly illustrates it was working back in December indeed!
It conflicts with r8169.ko inobviously.
The whole mess looks like this:
- r8169.ko doesn't work for all of Realtek 8111/8168/8169 mutations
- r8168.ko works with some of the chips r8169.ko doesn't
- r8168.ko also works with many chips r8169.ko works with
- r8169.ko is provided by kernel-image package (thus default)
- r8168.ko is provided by kernel-modules-r8168 package (optional)
- kernel-modules-r8168 package requires r8168-blacklist package
- r8168-blacklist package is a one-liner that blacklists r8169.ko
- STAGE1_KMODULES wouldn't include r8168 (std-def) or rtl8168 (led-ws)
- sub.in/stage1/modules would mention r8168.ko (m-p-d: r8169.ko)
So a LiveCD built with use/kernel/net might work with RTL8111/8110
just fine when booted live but fail to automatically load the module
when installed onto hard drive; manual modprobe r8169 would work though.
NB: some of the chips (those available to me) would work just fine
both ways -- this has contributed to fixing this *that* late.
Bottom line:
do not install backup/kludge drivers overriding main ones by default!
Thanks sem@ for providing the crucial hint.
use/deflogin will result in ROOTPW being exported no matter
is it set or not; xport() can't check before exporting as it
relies on lazy evaluation when the actual ROOTPW value can be
set or modified after exporting GLOBAL_ROOTPW for mkimage.
So let's not even pretent we can differ unset ROOTPW from
empty ROOTPW: both result in empty GLOBAL_ROOTPW as of today.
Fixing this would require moving the exports into a separate
makefile being included after all the configuration and checking
each variable for being defined before exporting the corresponding
GLOBAL_ prefixed one.
Yes this might be a security fix in some cases.
TDE images are pretty modest regarding resource consumption
thus suitable for older hardware; a slower flash drive can
stall indefinitely showing slideshow and not going any further
with actual package installation so let's put a cap on that.
Added use/branding/slideshow/once as one of the uses
albeit the interface is universal; see this page for
