The problem with the changed piece of code is that it would
- both call cp(1) multiple times if multiple *_LIST variables
were non-empty (which is usually the case), and
- try to evaluate stdout of the called commands as a shell
script (which would be empty unless someone passed e.g. -v
to that cp(1) but it's crazy to rely on things like this).
So the functions should prepare arguments for a single copy
command that is predictable and could be made verbose.
Ouch.
The issue at hand is the hack to be employed in the init feature:
@$(call add,THE_LISTS,$$(INIT_TYPE))
where INIT_TYPE is set separately; $(value $V) would leave that kind
of substitution unmolested while we would actually need it done.
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.
qemu-img makes use of sparse files so the image will take up
reasonable space when handled appropriately (and compress nicely
as well); making images of minimal size is going to result in
grave usage problems starting with apt-get update hitting ENOSPC.
Thanks glebfm@ and sem@ for reminding me about UUID;
the only hardwired thing left is "sda" which *will*
break for virtio_blk case when updating the kernel;
fixing this up in a firsttime script might be due
but the diagnostics should be pretty informative.
These images boot with SATA emulation, virtio_blk setup
(plain virtio disk), and virtio_scsi setup available in
newer qemu/kvm and libvirt; one is advised to read
http://linux-kvm.com/content/virtio-scsi
Thanks glebfm@ for spotting that it's = instead of +=
as it goes in all the other places; I remember no good
reason to overwrite the potentially preexisting contents.
(backport)
It's the most compact "generic" kernel available
in Sisyphus and some branches; led-vs might have
been more suitable but it's not supported within
p7/branch (current stable).
I don't see any reason to use systemd within VM images,
and it would stick its journal as a syslog implementation
when not ditched explicitly :-/
(backport)
We chose to provide methods to sign packages but to avoid
signing these by default (with some arbitrary test keys)
the signatures are being added *after* the build by means
of rpmrebuild-pesign; all of this is made significantly
more complicated if there are separate -signed subpackages.
So these are being dropped in the packages; account for that.
Actually the issue was worse in general: *_PACKAGES
weren't quoted when put into .base thus resulting
in a potentially broken echo command (silent one).
The macro scheme used was overgeneralized; stuffing
quoting differentiation into it was doable but ugly
(unless one is able to pass an unquoted quote sign
as a function's parameter in some elegant manner),
let's just make it straightforward.
...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.
INSTALL2_PACKAGES turned out to be sensitive to the
feature addition order: if efi was added before install2
then the packages added by the former were overridden
by the latter.
This is also related to commit g7b76c73 as +installer
can be added pretty much anywhere, there's no warranty
that use/install2 appears early enough in configuration
build-up sequence.
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.
This one is a part of a larger rewrite to move away from
distro-centric build-up to configuration-centric one with
the particular packaging being of secondary importance
compared to actual functionality.
The installed livecd would lack fstab entries for the filesystems
other than those mounted explicitly during partition step; while
this might be considered either bug or feature, let's try that
and see.
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.
Another service that's not very useful on a LiveCD;
maybe should be enabled by default upon installation,
this also requires a proper framework in place.
