use/deflogin will result in ROOTPW being exported no matter
is it set or not; xport() can't check before exporting as it
relies on lazy evaluation when the actual ROOTPW value can be
set or modified after exporting GLOBAL_ROOTPW for mkimage.
So let's not even pretent we can differ unset ROOTPW from
empty ROOTPW: both result in empty GLOBAL_ROOTPW as of today.
Fixing this would require moving the exports into a separate
makefile being included after all the configuration and checking
each variable for being defined before exporting the corresponding
GLOBAL_ prefixed one.
Yes this might be a security fix in some cases.
TDE images are pretty modest regarding resource consumption
thus suitable for older hardware; a slower flash drive can
stall indefinitely showing slideshow and not going any further
with actual package installation so let's put a cap on that.
Added use/branding/slideshow/once as one of the uses
albeit the interface is universal; see this page for
more info: http://altlinux.org/branding/slideshow [ru]
The service and initscript have "connmand" name
while the package is called "connman" indeed.
Shame on me; this became apparent
while building regular-e18-sysv.
Defining a one-time variable is useless in this case,
and README should state the undefined ROOTPW status
explicitly (since it's now as advertized, heh).
The goals listed are pretty important to have them ordered
by priority; collaboration is definitely more important
than dynamic range of release managers' experience.
Some more editing has been due over pkg.in/lists/tagged/README
to make it more comprehensible and up-to-date; the problem with
groups isn't actually that bad as alterator-pkg's groups concept
is currently aligned with the requisite functionality provided by
pkg.in/lists/* directly; the tagged pkglists come into play when
we want to add "something like that" and don't really care about
the fine details of a secondary thing trusting that it's actually
comprised and working as advertized through its name tags.
Compare to reusing the pre-existing image configuration or features
versus reimplementing things in a rigid manner -- it's a flexibility
vs predictability question, and both scenarios are supported within
m-p explicitly.
This change is done to reduce ambiguity in some cases;
the previous intention has been to ease navigation when
staying in a particular directory, now it's been changed
in favour of convenient toplevel `git grep' in fact.
Both variants have their pros and cons, I just find myself
leaning to this one by now hence the commit. Feel free to
provide constructive criticism :)
Some path-related bitrot has also been fixed while at that.
Its name might still change through 1.1.x series
("userfs"?) but things like this should be mentioned
at least -- or superfluous references to neighbouring
entities should be removed.
It's required for NFS mounts but having a rescue image listening
to any non-localhost ports is too bad an idea, IMNSHO.
So let's fix this while spotted.
Well, some of the maintainers clearly prefer t7/branch
to publish their works; at least GNUstep and TDE packages
are updated there and might migrate to p7/branch later.
No need to fight that, really.
Split development packages into dev+gnustep pkglist -- these are
worth including in "full" version but will need thorough testing
so as to present the tools to those who value these.
Some of user packages are problematic and shouldn't be included
right now; the problems are mostly of these kinds:
- app won't start (at all or effectively);
- useless for being too alpha quality/incomplete;
- menu file for a commandline app lacking any feedback;
- package lacks the dependencies needed;
- it's a LoginPanel ;-)
Thanks a lot to upstream authors, real@ the packager
and kostyalamer who prepared a lot of menufiles anyways!
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.
KVM and VirtualBox support packages are pretty tiny
but essential when these images get deployed within
virtual environments for any reason, let's add 'em.
It's been gfxboot-free but no user visible facility to select locale
has emerged through these years; it's been decided to put gfxboot
until some text chooser is available (thanks aen@ for discussion).
This is a minimalistic ALT-based system installer tailored
for those who know how to bring up networking and apt-get
the packages they actually need; thanks frbrgeorge@ for
proposing the specification as well as sem@ and glebfm@
for discussion.
No mc, no glibc-locales, even no man and interactivesystem!
Packages included: apt basesystem openssh vim-console
PS: Sisyphus-based regular build is not the main goal though
thus the p7/branch {bri,klu}dge.
This image is largely a rebase of server-ovz.iso onto regular-server;
it's not feasible to provide a single image that would install either
"mini" server or openvz/kvm one based on user choice during boot alas
(even if both ovz-el and std-def kernels are provided within "ovz" ISO
and vzctl&co could be stuffed into a package list/group).
Maybe this is fixed some day...
OpenVZ related part is now a reusable use/server/ovz target,
and service related groups which have been largely taken from
rider@'s server-light project are now use/server/groups/base.
TerraSync might come handy (just as online manuals) but one's
going to need internet access for that so let's put at least
DHCP-over-Ethernet configuration preset in.
There's a beautiful airliner model out there thanks to the guys
at flightgear.ru, and it was asking to be included but its unclear
licensing status; now that 3.0 is GPLed I'm glad to add this package.
The use/x11/nvidia/optimus target will pull the bits required
to operate NVIDIA Optimus GPU scheme which relies on integrated
GPU to actually drive the screen; much thanks to barssc@ for
good walkthrough: http://altlinux.org/optimus
NB: this *will* break if nouveau gets in, YHBW.
This might belong to test.mk actually but it's been instrumental
in getting bumblebee support operational within these LiveCDs;
icewm and sysvinit are a commonplace among those currently
but aren't set in stone for that matter.
"messagebus" service is autostarted since dbus gets in being required
by wpa_supplicant <- alterator-net-wifi <- alterator-net-eth; it is
really not needed in the minimalistic server, let's just turn it off.
"lvm2-lvmetad" service requires setup to be actually useful (#29474).
This is long overdue: services feature influences live
and rescue but doesn't do anything to the installed system
as that's behind the installation barrier; some piggybacking
required to do that has been merged into installer back in
2012 apparently (thanks to boyarsh@ for both doing that and
bringing my attention to this fact; it's 65-setup-services.sh
as of today).
So the only thing missing has been the bridge to prepare
those files -- still some more tweakery is required given the
two-stage process arranged so that reusable configuration could
include some sane defaults but the release manager is ultimately
able to override anything without extra kludges; thank legion@
for his wonderful libshell either.
NB: install2 script is a partial clone of rootfs one since
processing the variables is identical; still rootfs script
has to change service state directly while install2 one
has to deposit the information for installer to handle.
use/live/textinstall target is a base for those images whose
target audience tends to be somewhat more experienced; these
might prefer to just boot off the image instead of having to
perform any extra action like pressing down arrow and enter.
This is also to help msp@'s homeros-*.iso boot immediately.
Actually a copy of 10localboot.cfg with a different name
and sorting order so as to address #26608: there's no possibility
to make a LiveCD image that would boot itself by default if localboot
has been configured in.
It's only a partial solution as it doesn't override 10localboot
in case it's there already but a step in that direction...
A hint regarding livecd-net-eth is due -- as well as
review and cleanup of live, net, net-eth features
involved in configuring that ethernet for a LiveCD.
This is not strictly required but is basically requisite for some
operations with both packages (did you know about rpm2cpio.sh?)
and initramfs images (which are gzipped cpio archives).
So let's put it in.
It's hardwired at 1/10 of the default /etc/net value
since 3 seconds are enough for properly functioning
DHCP servers in properly maintained networks (those
improper ones tend to have problems with 30 seconds
anyways), and waiting for too long makes users feel
bad for a reason.
Thanks msp@ for bringing attention to this.
This package has replaced installer-feature-setup-network-stage3
without declaring that; it appears that installer-distro-altlinux-*
don't require it even if most of the others do.
This is to ensure it's included, at least at the moment.
The initial revision was brilliantly buggy: it is *so* apparent
that cdrom will never be actually used for rw slice that this
has evaded my attention rather completely.
This change tries to force loading the storage driver
for cases when SecureBoot is "helping" the chainloader
to fail, see #29705 for details collected so far.
Of course ahci.ko only does AHCI but that's every storage
controller I've seen on UEFI/SecureBoot systems so far.
Let's put osec tools into installable packages at least
(aiming to shift these into default install probably);
these are worthwile addition to sysadmin's toolbox.
Thanks dobr@ for bringing this up.
It turns out that regular-rescue.iso lacks sshfs,
which is unfortunate (even if it could be installed
with apt in this particular case); three more FUSE
based filesystems have been added just in case.
Thanks mithraen@ for suggesting davfs2.
I'm fed up with graphical software occasionally making it
into regular-rescue.iso and bloating it for no good reason
given that window managers or xinitrc aren't included.
This has been spotted and solved manually several times already,
and that's just boring so let's add the ability to state that
X11-based software is not accepted into a particular rescue image.
Not that I would hate X but things like that belong to a carefully
crafted image which includes either X server or reasonable means
to ensure that GUI software can actually be used.
NB: this is a somewhat new entity: test/rescue/no-x11 knob
for an image-script intended to make it blow up the build
when libX11 is found within the chroot that makes up
the rescue image's filesystem.
The interface is not documented intentionally: it will take
some time to find out whether it sticks or is bad enough.
Please do remind/ask if interested in using that.
Seeing tagged/base+rescue~ in build.log isn't particularly
heart-warming; while other editors but the one leaving tilda
marked backups and .sw* swap files might exist let's do this
step at this time.
Wonder what changed though, this used not to happen before.
Dank Bagryantsev asked if it could be added to available packages
at least; well it is there now but not in default install
as aptitude is currently unsupported.
I don't think we're gonna like plymouth over rescue image
anytime soon, especially when it hides the moment when shell
pops up somewhere under it without startup-rescue caring to
remove the splash.
So let's put that $(INSTALL2_BRANDING) into proper stage2
flavours only and avoid choking on missing plymouth as well.
led@ has different kernel-modules-* package set,
some of those "standard" names are provided but
vbox* is not the case.
As our macros and helpers will grok this just fine,
let's add both variants so what's present gets in.
This kernel can help save almost 50 megabytes of image size
and shave off several megs of RAM consumption as well which
is important after the installation has been through.
Adding rescue image was requested by Speccyfighter (in Russian):
http://lists.altlinux.org/pipermail/community/2013-December/681045.html
...and it seems hard but doable if one doesn't mind barebone rescue;
still efi-shell shouldn't spoil x86_64 build as that one won't fit CD-R
and doesn't have to anyways.
In these tough times there are no extra resources to waste
for wars or some extra rescue; so it is imperative to provide
some lean and mean help, you know.
IOW a common base has been split out and a more tight rescue
image configuration has been added on top of that so as to
try and fit altlinux-p7-sysv-tde.iso for i586 into CD-R.
Argh, so alterator-auth was hiding under a name it provides too
-- now *that* is the cause for those last-step failures as the
rest of the environment hasn't been getting set up apparently.
Just drop it, there's a proper domain-client pkglist for that.
This is what 63293ff22a should
have done too.
un-def got unsuitable due to initial ramdisk migrating from
initramfs to tmpfs by default in newer kernels, and propagator
was using pretty kludgy way to determine that /dev has been
mounted already; led-ws (and supposedly lks-wks) have stumbled
upon this earlier.
20130822 version has been fixed regarding that.
I've noted that this bit of code should be fixed up
before pushing but managed to overlook that in the end :(
mkimage version bump is due to the somewhat changed layout
of EFI packages and binaries within those (linked message in Russian):
http://lists.altlinux.org/pipermail/devel-distro/2013-December/001283.html
...instead of installer-distro-desktop which pulls in
alterator-auth which breaks things big time for sysv-tde
installer image due to avahi-daemon lazy to run.
Of course it's the last step of installation that has to fail.
And I've been considering this for several months already anyways.
I wondered how regular-e18 lacked econnman but it only
took a closer look to understand that it's just not told
to go in, plain and simple!
There are no e18-extra-modules (at least so far),
confine that to desktop+e17.
It's proprietary now but still very useful with no free software
alternatives for UEFI platform so far; let's include efi-memtest86
into the rescue image at least.
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.
Everything is handled within mki-copy-efiboot currently
but it needs an image to process; extracting one from
bootloader branding seems less hassle than forcing it
into every flavour of branding.
The changes in commits gb3e3234 and ga860b17 were actually useless
as rescue+fs list wasn't included into RESCUE_LISTS... and I need
pv(1) for convenient local disk cloning with time estimate.
This basically reverts commit c18ef37274
for all practical purposes and restores the problem with chromium livecd
still that's less of a problem compared to regular builds complaining
that firefox is not the default browser when it's the only one anyways.
A bit longer version is: add the script which cares to protect
the interfaces which has been brought up during NFS root bootup
already from being tampered with by NetworkManager so as to avoid
losing network with networked rootfs.
live-webkiosk doesn't really need it and mixin/desktop-installer
was picking it up due to d+n+l satisfying d+n query. This could
be fixed with && !live but fixing bitrot is the better way to go.
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.
distro/.regular-install depends on use/luks now too;
this isn't a hard decision but so far looks good
given the overall functionality range and balance
within regular builds.
I've been considering a way to avoid confusion between:
- a tde based livecd with systemd;
- a tde based livecd with sysvinit;
- a tde based installer with sysvinit
and finally came to conclusion that regular-sysv prefix
will be common for installers with sysvinit within regular.mk
and p7.mk; this might be not perfect but should be good enough.
Note that while regular-sysv-tde.iso is buildable and installs
just fine at the moment I don't plan to publish Sisyphus based
installer builds as a rule since these require extra knowledge
regarding daily use (starting with http://altlinux.org/changes
and/or https://lists.altlinux.org/mailman/listinfo/sisyphus ML
subscription).
Sisyphus-based rescue image is fine as well as LiveCDs are;
installable LiveCDs (most of regular-*.iso) are actually
risky in case user actually installs *and* updates those
having ignored the red "unstable" status in the branding,
and that's the line I'm not going to cross that often.
BASE_BOOTLOADER must have been set to any of the supported
bootloader names somewhere during configuration; it is not
impossible to avoid this elsewhere so let's put a guardian
script which will stop the build which is known to result
in a broken image.
sub/main subprofile should not be requested directly
as documented in its README but rather via use/repo/main;
let's fix this discrepancy and check that no regressions
come hurling down.
This image family doesn't inherit from distro/.installer
and thus could miss the bootloader setup with no problems
(at least until an installed system would attempt booting
without a bootloader).
The whole thing requires some more thinking over and probably
moving more bits to mixins but in the mean time let's make sure
the bootloader *is* configured.
distro/.regular-install is now factored out to be reused in
tde based installer (and potentially more images later on).
This implies sysvinit at the moment which might change too
but looks just fine right now.
What was added for networked desktop installers is now needed
for regular desktop installers as well; moved to a mixin.
These will probably get reshaked at some point.
It's amazing but I've managed to miss out this brilliant
Qt-based Jabber client; a small selection of plugins is
added as well, suggestions are welcome.
- speech-ru and speech-en features are added;
- speech-related things removed from homeros features;
- speech/ directory for package lists added and other corresponding changes.
Networking is *not* brought up by these rescue images
by default, one is expected to know enough to do that
by hand if needed; still there's no harm to have apt
preconfigured so that it would be operational then.
There are various bootloaders around there and some of them
are supported in ALT Linux; let's provide all the mainstream
ones so that knowledgeable root@ has every tool needed for
most situations needing bootloader repairs.
These might require particular knowledge or special boot mode
(like EFI ones).
Being able to handle [compressed] archives of all kinds
tends to be pretty instrumental in rescue operations,
and some backup system clients won't hurt either.
Some ancient Serial words like "minicom" still come handy
at times too.
Comments, constructive criticism and proposals are welcome.
This doesn't add much but complements the compression utilities.
Maybe it should be moved to rescue+archive, especially if more
tools of this kind get written and packaged.
This package list is somewhat non-trivial and controversial:
- bacula client support is a pretty tiny addition; it does require
extensive knowledge of what's being done and too new client version
can actually hurt (as the bacula director version must not be lower);
- duplicity was added due to lav@ seemingly using it (it's tiny either).
Suggestions are welcome.
It was the proposal to add fsarchiver that has started this;
the package was there in X11-bearing live-rescue.iso but appears
to be a console program thus moved to rescue+misc pkglist;
more than a few rescue-grade utilities have turned up during
a quick look at what else is missing.
shellinabox and dvdsaster have been "added" as candidates since
the former does require additional actions but can provide a nice
security hole if these are taken without extra consideration,
and the latter is just pretty large although might still be useful.
This neat little utility helps immendely to deal with
the eternal "where all of my mega/giga/tera/petabyte disk
space went so busy?"... wonder how it could evade m-p ;-)
I considered these two to be either close forks differing in init system
used (and things involved too much like NM at the moment), or to bring
some more choice along; this commit sticks with the former approach,
namely "let's only toggle the init system and let the rest be the same"
so that choosing the particular implementation can be based on this very
difference and not any other ones added along with it.
...so that locale is selectable at boot (unfortunately there's no
way to do that with text menu so far as cmdline is only changed
in its entirety there and generating it from the bits involved
is Not Implemented Yet as usual).
Some of the excluded dockapps would crash on startup
or just require manual configuration thus getting those
into the default menu on a live image would rather harm.
distro/.regular-sysv{,-gtk} intermediate targets are factored out
to form the base for more image targets as at least e17, icewm,
tde and wmaker are fine without systemd-logind. These represent
both GTK and Qt based environments hence the two footholds.
LUKS seems like a worthwile addition to this particular image;
it's also switched to use installer-distro-altlinux-server
for both LUKS support (until installer-steps are dynamic)
and server-oriented partitioning presets.
Let's ensure that make-initrd-luks gets to the base install
until installer is tweaked to enable in-flight installation
of options like this.
Adding luks to stage1 [make-initrd] features makes no sense
on the other hand (and it wasn't happening anyways due to
the lack of add_feature function call in config.mk as was
accidentally spotted).
And putting luks packages into an installer image lacking
the reference to alterator-luks isn't that sensible, let's
complain to logs at the very least (this isn't going to hit
the default output though).
"prompt" and subsequent first "label" were not separated
in any way while second "label" and forth were; let's make
the resulting isolinux.cfg a tiny bit more pretty.
This is to avoid NM messing with network interface
involved in NFS root filesystem being operational
(see alterator-netinst); thanks sem@ for the hint.
Make it automatically start in desktop ones,
and let it be available in rescue too (there's
a risk of gpm picking up a wrong protocol and
selecting/pasting at random which is not exactly
the right thing for rescue environment with root
shells all around).
alterator-netinst currently relies on "default"
being specified explicitly; it's wrong and it should
cope with the first "label" clause as well but we're
better off being strict to this script, not that one.
This commit should be no-op regarding syslinux itself.
It's a great tool giving the ability to at least debug
the novel problems that weren't there before systemd.
Good that it doesn't want half of GNOME or python yet...
It was a desperate kludge to warrant fallback localization
for cases when livecd-setlocale failed to work out properly;
"thanks" to systemd paralizing startup the order was chaotic,
see #28991 for some details.
Now that livecd-setlocale >= 0.3.1 looks like working this
should be dropped for good.
And the proper preset solution will be l10n feature.
That one requires part of alterator-sysconfig backend
factored out into a standalone package along with its data.
Setting up apt configuration in every container
is pretty annoying, let's enable it by default.
Some provision to add/enable local mirror would
be beneficial but not there yet...
etckeeper was suggested by george@ along with vim-console;
the latter should come by server,base tags but so far does not
(splitting server-base list into common, bare metal and virtualized
parts in haste looked suboptimal).
That is, no need to pull in systemd as syslogd-daemon provider
when an unspecified one has been requested by interactivesystem
or anything else.
The tricky issue is that THE_LISTS will get expanded separately
and too late to specify a particular provider which will have been
auto-chosen while expanding e.g. BASE_PACKAGES.
So the autobuilds were failing for these two weeks since
commit e43386c1fe was *totally*
braindead: there's no "arm-e17" target neither "arm-kde4" one.
Fixed while awake and adjusted (in sync with build node)
to reference particular nexus7 and not just "arm".
The sad thing is that it should now read "nexus7old" TBH,
2013 model is not Linux friendly at all at the moment...
The behaviour that sort of settled didn't actually follow
the principle of the least surprise when one really wanted
to have BUILDDIR available for inspection; DEBUG=2 would be
effective to achieve that but CLEAN=0 would not.
Thanks led@ for spotting and reporting this.
gvfs pulls gnome-online-accounts and dconf in;
these add considerable bloat that well may be
undesirable in a lightweight distro, just pull
this into a separate pkglist.
It was a temporary hack actually, and is better dropped long-term:
things like predefined root accounts with remote access are *evil*
and this hook was a half of that "solution".
Use of oem feature to integrate first-boot setup is recommended
to deal with this issue, at least when graphics are available.
This one was asked for and is pretty reasonable common base
to play with cubox from scratch (being ALT); the intermediate
targets had to be refactored with:
- vm/.cubox-bare becoming *that* bare (it doesn't even
warrant an init anymore, let alone xorg);
- vm/.cubox-desktop accomodating most of desktop bits;
- vm/.cubox-base becoming vm/.cubox-oem as it should be.
The just-introduced tty feature is employed either.
The initial suggestion that any cubox image is a desktop one
didn't hold out for long; and xorg related bits are not that
related to boot script setup in terms of neccessity.
It basically reads the same but was referring to a neighbour
script that has been moved to a separate deflogin feature
during heavy refactoring of initial implementation draft.
This one was replaced by the net feature completely
and has been declared obsolete since 1.1.1 (a month ago).
A few remaining users trivially adjusted.
There was no need to split carrying over the pubkey
and tightening up permissions on the file and its parent
directory to be done in two separate scripts; this should
be more generic now as a bonus.
Users adjusted accordingly.
Minor fix: /boot directory is not cleaned for livecd if there are
homeros-install or luwrain-install files (in addition to live-install
and livecd-install being already checked).
The automated build relies on particular names
to be buildable and this broke during some sync;
http://nightly.altlinux.org/sisyphus-arm/snapshots/
were empty as autobuild was failing since 20130710.
p7 aliases go in too.
This inobvious buglet has been spotted shortly after
1.1.0 refactoring was roughly over; the problem is
that armh-specific targets would get ignored without
explicit ARCH=armh.
It's commit 768df7e9e9
which streamlined introspection within main.mk
and a bug in Makefile which left ARCH empty
even upon having autodetected it for ARCHES.
The current version is more straightforward as a bonus.
Thanks glebfm@ for nudging me to do this; initial draft
was the very firsh armh distro target successfully built
and tested but the effort has refocused onto nexus7 ones
with cubox images joining the party a bit later.
Now it's the time for all good servers...
It was sitting next to the wrong line after refactoring
of cubox related target and was referring to "king"
instead of "kind", very kind of me but not so kingly.
george@ spotted gqview in regular-lxde.iso and wondered why;
it's not being developed since 2006 or so while there's a fork
named geeqie which has continued to improve upon it.
Intro: NetworkManager-wait-online.service would, well, wait
for some network interface to become online or for timeout
to kick in.
Problem: if a LiveCD is tested in offline environment
that timeout will only impede the boot.
Proposed solution: use/net/nm/nodelay target has been implemented
to disable that service as proposed by sem@ and done in Simply;
"+nm" target changed to be an alias to this one.
It's old, it uses consolekit (even if not neccessarily),
it borders obsolescence *but* removal of udev-alsa has caused
massive regressions (e.g. regular-gnome3 had soundcard mixer
levels dropped to zero from the start, regular-razorqt added
inability to poweroff to that...).
Just get it back.
Thanks boyarsh@ and cas@ for pointing out that the branding
that takes MATE peculiarities (e.g. background settings)
into account is in Sisyphus/armh already.
This one is IMHO best suited DE for cubox' meagre performance
(especially on I/O side due to microSD) as it incurs quite modest
I/O, CPU and RAM footprint quite suitable for PII-300 times
(cubox feels quite like that but has lots of RAM compared to
even maxed-out Pentium II workstation).
The image includes OpenSCADA as a nice and unique feature
which has been developed with TDE environment in mind
and was used on ARM hardware like N900, incidentally;
thanks aen@ for this suggestion.
Most of these are slated to employ oem feature by now,
no sense to call it in almost every dependency chain;
the only image left with predefined locale and credentials
is cubox-xfce-ru.
The nuance being that:
- alterator-setup package would change default.target
for systemd providing a symlink of its own and making
a backup of what was there (rc3 basically);
- 40-x11-autostart would ignore that backup;
- 99-oem-setup would do nothing about it all either;
- alterator-setup removal would restore rc3 symlink.
It's not pretty either, something more robust should be
invented some day.
rootfs presented a special case when there is no resulting
directory at all as it gets merged with the target subprofile
by design.
Still those features adding only rootfs scripts need to depend
on it but this resulted in an attempt to process a missing subdir.
This is brought back to sanity now.
Few things:
- extend feature specification
+ SysVinit can be chosen explicitly via init feature,
no need to keep sysklogd in yet another pkglist;
+ power management should be included too
(both cpufreq setup and power button handling);
+ LILO seems to be heavily preferred among the
target audience :)
- use desktop installer for regular-server
+ the seeming controversy is explained easily:
installer-distro-altlinux-generic has very few
modules to the point of being inconvenient for
anything but quick rounds of basic testing,
and distributions rather do need network setup
along with a non-privileged user.
The funny thing while debugging this was "how the heck
could a sound related change induce privilege related shift?"
-- turns out that udev-alsa (which pulls in ConsoleKit)
was the culprit... looks like LXDE hasn't dumped it yet :)
As 50-sudo-su script cares for sudo and su control facilities no more
that hook is aptly renamed to 50-sshd-root (should be generalized
either some day).
Setting NM_CONTROLLED is apparently not enough to disable
/etc/net handling of a particular interface; thanks sem@
for noticing the fortunate error messages in logs
and explaining this peculiarity to me.
This bunch of commits was done so these can be
mixed and matched (or even reverted) later if needed;
it was tempting to just revamp things wholesale again
but coarse grained approach is worse to maintain.
The client side might benefit a bit more in the future
but the server side does not (and should not) require
everything client side does; thus use base ALSA target.
This replaces the many sets of the corresponding packages
wandering all over pkglists, features and configurations;
the interface should be rather well-defined by now.
use/live/install stopped to provide a desktop icon; the nuance is
that zdg-user-dirs-install.sh script in livecd-install package
expects ~/.config/user-dirs.dirs to actually do that.
