This aims to work around URW fonts deficiencies combined
with the relatively high position of their standard ones
in default /etc/fonts/conf.avail/60-alt-post-user.conf;
see also #30293, #30294.
It's not EFI-bootable due to the extra size penalty
with current build/boot technology, but it's also
not ISO-hybrid as most images are made hybrid by
making them EFI-capable as well since the processes
are related.
Thanks dango at the forum for asking:

+net-eth covers both stage2 and base installation parts
while use/stage2/net-eth would result in an inobvious
catch when udev-rule-generator-net would hit install2
but not the installed system, and interface bindings
would be carried over from installer to the installation
but would *not* be updated in case of changed network
card(s) configuration.
It was spilled over an intermediate target and a mixin
for what looks like no good reason; let's factor these
in by means of +net-eth as *both* are really needed
for an installer anyways, and if/when we do installers
with those new and crippled ethernet interface names
this addition can be dropped to be used where required.
The bare intermediate target did use/stage2/net-eth but it
was found out by sem@ that an installed server would lack
udev-rule-generator-net package so its ethernet interface
naming would be inherited from install2 stage only; fix it
by adding use/net-eth and reduce the churn with +net-eth.
It looks *ugly* on-screen, at least within regular builds,
even if the screen is 166dpi.
Based on a quick experiment this morning I'd suggest using
fonts-otf-adobe-source-{code,sans}-pro instead -- and it's
available as use/fonts/otf/adobe now, incidentally.
The documentation is still built with it though as a2x/fop look
unhappy otherwise (as in replacing Cyrillic glyphs with "#"s).
Thanks mithraen@ for creating a universal frontend script
for udisksctl/pmount/hmount user mount tools; let's try it
within the minimalistic GUI image for the starters.
There's no sense to duplucate sysklogd requirement
in plethora of fallback places when a specific feature
responsible for comprehensive init system choice has been
implemented since; just use/init/sysv as needed.
systemd-214 has major problems with starting these services,
and KDC should definitely not even try to start up before
setup (which is not feasible given that these are LiveCDs).
domain-client pkglist inhabitants and net-usershares feature
are nasty enough to bring a lot of extra garbage in unfortunately
(alterator-auth, alterator-kdc, alterator-net-shares involved).
Commit 78f2158 left those images which required NM but not
its applet explicitly broken (as in "no applet at all");
this should probably be redone alike to browser feature
but let's provide a 20140612 band-aid at least.
I thought about this again and came to conclusion that bringing
alteratord and ahttpd up or down should rather be done at the same
time as backends and frontend are useless without each other
(at least for your average sysadmin).
Matt Lewandowsky suggested that alteratord be enabled
but ahttpd be disabled so as to avoid extra port being
listened to out-of-box but to be able to turn web GUI on
when needed.
Suggested by frbrgeorge@ and sounds quite reasonable
given that live-rescue.iso is very immature yet and
there are only a few -- but compelling -- reasons
to provide a graphical rescue image, gparted being
one of them for sure.
The logic is pretty much the same as with live.mk,
even somewhat extended as this has actually been
the driver of this change: some images like icewm
or lxqt-based ones might show off other browsers
explicitly (in addition to zerg@'s request).
Firefox was the very reasonable default for initial livecd
implementation but now that at least initial browser chooser
infrastructure is in place it's time to un-hardwire its use.
It's _the_ default but switchable now so that images providing
a comprehensive browser can avoid feature duplication.
This should better lurk here unless someone (including myself)
either forgets or doesn't realize the inobvious chain of the
assumptions made for the read-only warranty to actually work.
This is actually downplaying: the net effect is that
a few images continue to carry krb5-ticket-watcher
and have avahi service enabled by default while most
of the images have one "weird" item less on their menus
and a few hundred kilobytes less in total RSS.
These are not really needed by default in lightweight
distros sporting reduced application and services set,
and the heavier ones will take relatively less hit
by default while being more ready as ALT Domain clients
(which was the whole motivation behind adding the feature
and the corresponding pkglist).
A virtual machine lacking DHCP client seems much less useful,
and being able to shut one down via emulated ACPI button press
seems like no luxury either.
led-ws kernel flavour has gained kernel-modules-vmware
recently, let's add this to the appropriate targets.
It's used in regular-jeos already but THE_ part was missing.
This should provide the fix for #30024 (thanks ildar@):
vmware relies on mptspi.ko by default and that's been
split out into scsi and not guest subpackage for led-ws.
BTW use/install2/vmguest instead of a bunch.
plasma-applet-networkmanager has been superseded by a bunch
of kde4-plasma-nm* packages; only the main one has been included
in regular-kde4 flavour since the switch resulting in the lack of
VPN/mobile connectivity options.
My opinion still is that plasma-applet-networkmanager should be
returned as a metapackage for p7/branch timespan so that images
could be built no matter whether it's sisyphus or p7 at hand.
Oh well.
Package has been prepared by shaba@ and sem@,
and it looks like ALT Linux with un-def kernel
is one of the few (or just the one) distribution
running on Hyper-V Gen.2 rather flawlessly
thanks to efforts by boyarsh@ and vitty@.
