mixin/regular-desktop can be used in non-x86 builds
where dualboot situation tends to be more rare;
let's keep this installer feature (tweaking installer
to pick up "other" filesystems) to regular.mk.
It's been tiresome to setup a few hosts having to rollback
to modesetting which exposes no artifacts at all (albeit
being slower) from mga2 that has issues with GTK3 for me...
do it this way.
"ALT Workstation/?01" presented some minor problem
with ISOs, I don't even recall this one precisely;
could be a readability or differentiability;
just go ahead with slightly better names.
This one-liner turns ALT Workstation for Elbrus 801-PC
into a more convenient distribution for dualseat rollouts.
(we didn't tackle sound aspects yet -- these can be handled
through PulseAudio locally -- and media mounting ones either;
still much beta than nothin')

These are supposed to be bootable indeed,
not just some data (e.g. repo) carrying images;
if distro/.boot's metadata are deemed superfluous
here, welcome to discuss and improve.

This one was added along with winswitch as a nice
solution to cross-host GUI problem; there was no
feedback on the inclusion though, and antohami@
tells that xpra-browser complains regarding dbus now.

This works around DRI3 problems resulting in caja getting
BadWindow with panel applets subsequently failing to jump
into dock (which doesn't exist just yet).

NM-1.4 is broken under sysvinit as of right now;
let's switch to etcnet until sem@ gets around
to fix it.

sin@ was overly optimistic about CIFS boot needs,
I think he rather meant starterkits so let's move
this into regular build rules -- use/stage2/cifs
is the only addition (the other things just got
re-messed up).
The main challenge for this change appeared to be lightdm:
it can do dualseat but in a quite peculiar way tied to systemd;
while wdm-based implementation well prepared and described by viy@
can survive both systemd and sysvinit just fine.
branding-alt-workstation-mate-settings pulls in lightdm-gtk-greeter,
and lightdm takes over; it should probably be masked in systemd case
(sysvinit should need no further hassle as /etc/X11/prefdm considers
wdm before lightdm for historical reasons; or /etc/sysconfig/desktop
could be filled in to be sure) *but* the current stopgap "solution"
is what it is now.

I decided to switch lightdm greeter from gtk to slick,
while adding the default user created to xgrp group
(to facilitate them access to DRI device nodes)
and turning off MATE's desire to spend extra resources
on bells and whistles though compositing window manager.
Every .iso was assumed to be bootable since the very beginning[*],
and isoboot images were deemed to be x86 isolinux ones; this didn't
change with basic ppc/armh support as I never ran into hardware
that would _boot_ those ISOs, not only run the code, and it was
only e2k isodata project that finally forced this refactoring.
It's still not perfect: pack and syslinux features still end up
somewhat interwoven, and too much places care for architecture
the image is being built for (instead of archdep features tossing
their appropriate bits and pieces in).
Should help:
- any-arch regarding isodata images;
- {x86,aarch64}/efi by decoupling isoboot and isolinux;
- ppc{,64} as introducing yaboot support will be easier now;
- mipsel{,64} too, hopefully.
* I knew of school addon images baked with mkimage-profiles-desktop
but postponed and then neglected the whole problem for years...
It's the common part that should be more or less architecture
independent (given enough packages in the corresponding repo)
that's been moved into a mixin; archdep bits kept in basealt.mk
(albeit rewritten).
Note that this approach should help building ALT Workstation
for both new arches (like aarch64 or mipsel) and new targets
(like vm) altogether.
