As part of verifying this SRU I had to change the test case to point to current lp:~ubuntu-core-dev/livecd-rootfs/livecd-rootfs-xenial, not because of any bug in the live-build SRU, but because the previously referenced branch would not reliably trigger the original bug against xenial (due to undefined ordering of initramfs-tools configuration).
These livecd-rootfs branches also had already added a versioned dependency on the xenial-proposed version of live-build, so the test case cannot be completed as written. Modifying the livecd-rootfs package to drop this versioned dependency is required; otherwise livecd- rootfs is unpacked but not configured, which prevents other packages to be successfully installed as part of the build by livecd-rootfs itself using apt. Once livecd-rootfs is correctly installed with the relaxed dependency, the original failure is reproducible as expected; and upgrading to the xenial-proposed version of live-build resolves it. ** Tags removed: verification-needed verification-needed-xenial ** Tags added: verification-done-xenial -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1720217 Title: Allow building images with kernels without initrd To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/live-build/+bug/1720217/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
