The issue is that gfxboot's gettext support works on "label"
strings but doesn't work properly on "menu label" ones as of 4.04
(the "menu label" translations pop up in the "Loading ..." window
but menu items themselves are unaffected thus untranslated).
NB: debian wheezy's syslinux-4.05 package patchset contains
somewhat related 07-gfxboot-menu-label.patch; might be worth
attention given that debian folks participate in upstream.
Now this is ugly: instead of commoditizing the repetitive code
the result ended up working differently by creating several
repositories for the target subdirs instead of the single one
for the generated subprofile as a whole.
This results in .disk/profile.tgz being basically useless
in every image since c4311108ea.
The same "regular-gtk" based set of images received common
desktop background provided; note that kde4 won't like it
(branding package didn't really anticipate kde4 and is to
be updated appropriately as well as extended for mate/fvwm).
This one is also used for lightdm/gtk.
"regular-gtk" based images moved from the (unsupported) gdm2.20
to the (supported) lightdm with gtk greeter; while a couple of
gdm2 forks have emerged it's still unclear whether mate or mint
one will be actually alive, even short/mid-term.
The issue is that it's suddenly broken in current Sisyphus,
looks like the peculiar set of assumptions in fedora-tweaked
systemd+plymouth+gdm3 relies on tty1 being the X session tty
and it's different here.
It appears that manually specified IMAGEDIR, e.g. by adding
IMAGEDIR = ~/out/$(shell date +%Y%m%d)
to ~/.mkimage/profiles.mk, might be problematic due to
missing globbing. Let's make sure the paths are globbed
and directories are created -- since make's wildcard()
returns an empty string when there's nothing there [yet].
It appeared that plymouthd.conf wasn't set up properly
thus "service plymouth stop" didn't result in anything
meaningful; thanks boyarsh@ for his help figuring this
out again.
Folks have been wondering already whether e.g. t6 breakage
qualifies as a bug; it does indeed unless the "broken" part
depends on the features not available with that branch yet,
e.g. EFI support.
Its support was dropped in mkimage some time ago
since xorriso semantics changed quite considerably
and the tweak that was done here is now performed
out-of-box thus no longer needed.
It's aimed at providing UEFI shell implementation which is very
useful for repairs and debug; if the "signed" mode is requested
then the signed variant is used either.
Please note that there are two distinct uses:
- a shell lying around on a filesystem to be copied by hand;
- a shell available in EFI part of boot media to be launched
by firmware's or standalone boot manager (e.g. refind).
