Hello,
the following patch will fix this bug and bug #772522 (casper is not
installed in ubuntu mode in live-build 4.0.3-1). It fixes the
--initsystem option and --mode ubuntu.
Example (one may want a live cd with sysvinit without systemd nor
consolekit installed):
Now, to get a jessie live system with sysvinit instead of systemd with
live-build 4.0.3-1:
lb config -d jessie
sed -i 's|live-config-systemd|live-config-sysvinit|'
config/package-lists/live.list.chroot
echo "sysvinit-core" >> config/package-lists/live.list.chroot
sudo lb build
With the following patch applied one can symply select the prefered
supported initsystem (being the default systemd) and just do:
lb config -d jessie --initsystem sysvinit
sudo lb build
And live-build will build a jessie livesystem with sysvinit instead of systemd.
Obviously, in this case, because fluxbox does not depend on neither
systemd nor consolekit, they both don't get installed in the live
system. If a user selects packages that depend on systemd then he/she
should not select sysvinit as the initsystem for the image.
I did not tested it but last time I tried to build a wheezy live image
with live-build 4.0.3-1 it didn't booted. I think this patch will also
fix it, but I did not try.
The patch is against latest live-build debian-next branch but IMHO I
think this patch should be applied to the debian branch (jessie). I
can provide it if needed.
I've CC bug #772522 because I think it is related.
Please keep the --initsystem option in lb4.
Thank you.
