well, taking some of the feedback i've gotten from people, transformed
it into code, waited a week while my internet access was dead, and
finally released simple-cdd 0.2.1.
packages (and sources, with deb-src) available at:
deb http://debian-np.alioth.debian.org/debian unstable main
or
deb http://llama.freegeek.org/~vagrant/debian unstable/
changes include:
simple-cdd (0.2.1) unstable; urgency=low
* freekbox3 profile:
- defaults to 2.6 kernel
- only add CD entry to sources.list if not already present
* new experimental profiles:
- fg-baseserver: a simple server image
+ include (but not install) software for:
web, mail, dhcp, dns, http proxy
- freekbox3-laptop: additional software for laptops
- freekbox3-gnome: gnome-based profile similar to freekbox3
- freekbox3-fgoly: minor changes to freekbox3 from freegeek olympia
* removed unmaintained "sa" profile
* per-profile descriptions

- "build profiles" that only are used during CD build
- can be installed into PATH and run from anywhere
- crude support for an additional mirror

- able to grab updates from a security mirror
- new commandline options:
+ set default profiles: --default-profiles
+ build profiles: --build-profiles
+ security mirror: --security-mirror
+ extra mirror: --extra-mirror
* simple-cdd-packages:
- do not attempt to install packages already installed
- option to override debconf priority and frontend
* freekbox3-multi build profile: multi-profile freekbox3 installer
- excluded packages by default
* local package support:
- attempt to resolve dependencies of local packages
- use LOCAL/LOCALDEBS feature of debian-cd

live well,
vagrant
