I'm not sure it's related, but I just tried to build a KDE 4.4.2 rc0 which failed when trying to
remove /var/state/samhain.
These are the last log items before the fail:
P: Deconfiguring file /etc/apt/apt.conf
P: Deconfiguring file /etc/hostname
P: Deconfiguring file /bin/hostname
P: Deconfiguring file /etc/resolv.conf
P: Deconfiguring file /etc/hosts
P: Deconfiguring file /usr/sbin/policy-rc.d
P: Deconfiguring file /usr/sbin/initctl
P: Deconfiguring file /sbin/start-stop-daemon
rmdir: failed to remove `/var/state/samhain': No such file or directory
P: Begin unmounting filesystems...
In order to build a KDE 4.4.2 rc0 image, I entered interactive mode since I needed the following
command (amongst others):
#aptitude -t experimental-snapshots full-upgrade
KDE 4.4.x is not (yet) in the official debian archive, but available at http://qt-kde.debian.net/
I started creating the LiveCD with "./create-kde-livecd kde-standard". The script and the relevant
config files are attached.
Related to building that KDE LiveCD, but not to the problem above, I have 2 questions:
- In order to install from both debian-multimedia and experimental-snapshots, I have the packages
with the archive-keyring placed in config/chroot_local-packages, but I still get warning/errors about
a GPG error about signatures which couldn't be validated. When I only used debian-multimedia I never
got that problem. Did I do sth wrong or has the procedure with external repositories changed?
- Is it possible to specify the repository (experimental-snapshots in this case) with the package
lists? Like what you do with "aptitude -t experimental-snapshots install x"
