This bug was fixed in the package livecd-rootfs - 2.408.24 --------------- livecd-rootfs (2.408.24) xenial; urgency=medium
* For the IMAGEFORMAT=none parts to work for ubuntu-image classic builds, we need to make sure IMAGEFORMAT is preserved and not overwritten if defined. Backporting from artful. livecd-rootfs (2.408.23) xenial; urgency=medium [ Gary Wang ] * Add the IMAGEFORMAT=none to support generating a single rootfs (LP: #1730642) [ Christopher Glass (Ubuntu) ] * Backport "minimized round 2" changes from trunk to Xenial (LP: #1731492) * Remove apt, debconf, dpkg cruft files from /var/cache and /var/lib in all our livefses. * Pass --cache false to lb config; otherwise we copy around caches of .debs that are never used properly, and which prevent us from emptying /var/cache/apt in images. * When building minimized cloud images, remove various packages that we don't want installed by default. Some are tools that aren't needed for non-interactive use; some are libraries whose reverse-dependencies will have already been removed; and one, open-vm-tools, should only be included in images that are targeted to VMWare (which is not the case for any of the current minimal images), rather than being included directly in the cloud-image seed. -- Łukasz 'sil2100' Zemczak <lukasz.zemc...@ubuntu.com> Tue, 21 Nov 2017 17:01:14 +0100 ** Changed in: livecd-rootfs (Ubuntu Xenial) Status: Fix Committed => Fix Released -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of नेपाली भाषा समायोजकहरुको समूह, which is subscribed to Xenial.

By design ubuntu-image will use livecd-rootfs for preparation of the rootfs contents and then continue with building the image. Since ubuntu-image is backported feature-complete into artful, zesty and xenial, we would need the same change to be propagated to those stable series. [Test Case] * Install livecd-rootfs from -proposed * Create a temporary directory, cd into it * cp -a `dpkg -L livecd-rootfs | grep "auto$"` . * sudo PROJECT="ubuntu-cpc" ARCH=amd64 IMAGEFORMAT=none SUITE=<SERIES> lb config * sudo PROJECT="ubuntu-cpc" ARCH=amd64 IMAGEFORMAT=none SUITE=<SERIES> lb build * Make sure the build succeeds and that the current directory will have a chroot/ with the build rootfs contents * Make sure that there config/hooks/ directory has no binary hooks [Regression Potential] The proposed change should be self-contained and not affecting any other code paths, but in the case of a very unlikely situation regular image builds could be broken by binary hooks not being executed.
