These mostly come from m-p-d but have been heavily reworked
for the new workstation distro, here's a list of the
typical changes:
- changed X-Alterator-Parent from centaurus-desktop
to a more fine-grained toplevel entry;
- tweaked Categories for the desktop file (e.g. pidgin);
- packages added or removed (like sane to scanning);
- adapted for m-p's biarch support scheme (see emulators);
- renamed more appropriately (for example, 3d -> blender);
- improved descriptions (e.g. by adding specific product
names to groups referencing single-package lists).
Several ones were done from scratch.
NB: lists/groups have been moved into workstation/
and intersynced accordingly.
This has been spotted by rider@ and reproduced by me as well:
some touchpads would work in livecd/installed system but not
within the installer itself.
Commit 514652f has broke GLOBAL_CLEANUP_PACKAGES by accidentally
excluding it from export (in favour of GLOBAL_CLEANUP_BASE_PACKAGES
that's been added then); fix that.
Make it prefix not suffix so that sorting order
in alterator-pkg is natural instead of chaotic
during installation; turn some implicit "tools"
into explicit ones for consistency either.
Another zerg@'s surprise was the change with amarok,
k3b and ktorrent packages in sisyphus/p8: these have
been changed to use kde4libs/kf5 and KDE3-related
packages have now been renamed to kde3-*.
Handling this without metapackages is more tricky
so do just that.
This script was completely careless regarding the chance
to meet an empty variable resulting in plain "rpm -qa"
and subsequent attempt to, well, remove *all* packages.
Thanks zerg@ for being persistent this time, even if
he could probably find the culprit and send in this patch.
:)
The problem at hand was that use/x11/xorg has been final,
and zerg@ just couldn't switch from nouveau to nvidia
when kdesktop needs that one.
Initial approach included a "big" FREE/PROP switch that
chose the particular KMODULES/PACKAGES to get added to
THE_* but that fails to achieve e.g. nvidia+radeon combo;
looks like these need individual switches.
Current lxsession would offer to lock screen but will silently
fail within default regular-lxde.iso environment (that does lack
any kind of X screen lock utility); add some.
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.
stage2 only allows to run certain scripts and install packages, but
sometimes one need just to copy something to stage2 (like stage1 does).
How to use:
put files under ./files directory with the same structure as on
resulting image.
The use case at hand was: "we'd better backup this system
to a flashdrive before installing" (given quad-core CPU
and half-terabyte HDD); pxz is pretty tiny, no worries.
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 a clone of tagged/server+sambaDC pkglist
with added metadata *and* an installer feature
to make things happen at install time; not sure
if regular-server-samba4 is going away any time
soon though as it's useful standalone too.
"Failsafe install" disabling APIC/LAPIC looks somewhat obsolete
by now; the only reasonable part seems to be the attempt to force
VESA videodriver for the installer (should be done within installer
itself though).
