...and switch to cinnamon-regular metapackage in general:
the remaining blocker being gdm required by that and not
actually going to work (it used to start gnome-shell which
wouldn't work in that configuration either) is now fixed,
thanks cow@.
PS: plymouth is moved upstream, drop the dup.
There were several packages which don't really belong to base
list but rather to the desktop one; given that both of these
are included in desktop images it's a no-op for them but the
server ones might be better off without graphics.
Whoops: XFS, JFS, NTFS, FAT support has been lost while dancing
with reusing rescue lists and back to being lean.
Thanks Vladimir Gusev for spotting [a part of] this.
Moved the packages which impeded pkglist reuse for live distros
so that these stay within dedicated rescue images but don't
neccessarily go into the more generic ones where things like
fdisk are still quite useful.
The expected behaviour is to have online repositories enabled
when the livecd is running; the trouble with runtime detection
relates to the asynchronous nature of network configuration,
connection might get probed just before it is brought up
(thus failing the test).
Systems having been installed-from-live don't misbehave this way
so left unmolested.
Runtime detection is still available via use/live/repo/online
but is definitely not the default mechanism.
Thanks to Baurzhan Muftakhidinov's efforts along with help
from cas@ and zerg@, regular images should now support Kazakh
fairly well at least in terms of translation; this commit amends
these images with Ukrainian too and adds an experimental razorqt
based distribution that boots in kk_KZ by default.
Suggested by YYY; the initial plan was to include CUPS
in all the regular images but that turned out to be
impractical (too much bits added with too few actual
usage per bit expected).
So let's take s-c-p along with cups.
It's required by make-initrd-propagator in "rw slice" mode
when the remainder of an USB Flash drive is prepared and used
for persistent storage; fdisk is also immensely useful in general.
The real issue was that regular-tde.iso was discovered to
lack FAT support in alterator-vm (known as #28470); as the
filesystem specific packages are pulled in via rescue lists
let's add it here along with dosfstools.
Thanks Speccyfighter at forum.altlinux.org for spotting this.
As zerg@ noted there's synaptic-kde already; I managed to overlook
that synaptic-usermode still gets into kde4 image as it's put into
base+regular pkglist. Thanks aen@ for spotting.
Quite a few filesystem specific tools and utilities went into extra,
some of them pulled back from fs since the proper categorization will
clearly require even more effort.
Added utilities for: f2fs, nilfs, logfs, reiser4fs, clicfs, cloop,
ocfs2, exofs, zfs, cifs.
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.
