Talked with timo about this: <tjaalton> and that's simple to fix in livecd-rootfs (create a new file after it removes the existing one) then the situation would be the same as after preinst =empty file, and a md5sum that matches it <tjaalton> the session runs reconfigure already, but currently that fails so we don't need to touch anything in addition to livecd-rootfs I'm not sure what actually broke this in hardy, but it's a lot more complicated to fix in xserver-xorg l-r removes the file because it needs to have a clean start (=dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg), but that fails because the postinst notices that there is no xorg.conf, and thinks that's how the user wants <bryce> so, is the right fix to make livecd-rootfs not remove that file to begin with, or to add a control for the dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg call to make it generate the xorg.conf even if it's missing, or...? <tjaalton> I'm thinking that let it remove the file, then touch a new one (=md5sum matches since it's empty as the one created on preinst) :) and do that in livecd-rootfs <bryce> will that fix the issue though? <tjaalton> it should since that's pretty much how the preinst would have done although I'm not sure if the md5sum should be recreated also probably look at livecd.sh from livecd-rootfs it does all sort of cleaning on the chroot
