Bug#801636: Install suite jessie (not wheezy) in jessie image
Package: cloud.debian.org
X-Debbugs-CC: debian-cloud@lists.debian.org
Eye-balling the configuration file for building the jessie image I
noticed the "d-i mirror/suite string wheezy". It looked strange to me
so I patched it locally to "jessie" because I thought it made more
sense and I am filing this ticket hoping it is useful. I am not sure
this is a correct change.
While testing ("make stable-test") I noticed that "/etc/init.d/vboxadd
start" failed. I ran packed in "-debug" mode (in order to prevent VM
deletion after failed step), I inspected the content of the hard drive
and I noticed that the file was not there. Suspecting recent systemd
changes to be responsible, I rewrote the step to "service vboxadd
start", I ran again and it worked. I did not test that such step works
for the wheezy image (the script is shared for all the images) but I
understand that it should.
I wrote two commits with the changes and I published them at the link
below - I will try to attach patch to this ticket.
