debian-cd - Tools for building (Official) Debian CD set
Closes: 231583 258099 361422 393229 402267 406320
Changes:
debian-cd (3.0.0) unstable; urgency=medium
.
* Support now added for multi-arch CDs/DVDs, including mixed
binary/source discs. Multi-arch discs should be bootable on those
multiple arches, modulo boot-sector clashes. Extra support added
in boot-i386 and boot-amd64 to make the 2 main arches happily
co-exist.
.
* Disc sizing is now much more intelligent - sizes are defined
depending on the disk type chosen at the start, and discs are now
filled exactly to those sizes while files are added rather than
the old up-front guessing method. Equally, the metadata on the
disc (Packages, Packages.gz, Sources, Sources.gz, md5sums.txt) is
generated as much as possible while this is happening to make the
sizing code incredibly accurate. Using this method of disc sizing
means that customising discs should be much easier/safer - either
add custom contents at the start and debian-cd will fill the
remainder of the disc, or afterwards roll back the packages on the
disc and add extras later.
.
* Source is now treated as (almost) just another arch, with most of
the special casing for source hidden internally. If asking for
source-only discs, they will simply be built using all the
available sources. If combined with other arches, the sources will
automatically be chosen to match the binary packages. Meeting GPL
requirements was never so easy!
.
* Removed lots of old cruft to clean up the codebase:
+ non-US support
+ woody support
+ lots of old support scripts that have been made redundant
+ significantly simpler Makefile, much easier to follow
+ old boot-$ARCH.calc files for estimating boot-file sizes are now
(obviously) obsolete and therefore gone
.
Other changes:
.
[ Petter Reinholdtsen ]
* Update tools/boot/*/boot-amd64 to use the correct isolinux
splash image settings, and to insert $KERNEL_PARAMS correctly into
isolinux.cfg. Based on patches already implemented in boot-i386.
.
[ Joey Hess ]
* Remove 2.4 kernels from generate_di+k_list for i386.
* Remove 2.2 kernel for mac from generate_di+k_list, as it's no longer in
the archive.
* Deal with new xfce-desktop task.
.
[ Steve McIntyre ]
* Merge patch from Petter to allow override of the default boot choice
in syslinux using the ISOLINUX_DEFAULT config option. Closes: #393229
.
[ Joey Hess ]
* Include brltty in generate_di+k_list.
* Increase alpha hardcoded ramdisk_size to 20 mb, 16 is too small now.
.
[ Frans Pop ]
* Remove boot parameters that are no longer needed after switch to initramfs
initrds for sparc and hppa.
* tasks/exclude-etch: clean out obsolete entries.
* tools/generate_di+k_list: generic suffix was dropped for amd64 kernels.
* tools/generate_di+k_list: add new required packages for arm.
* Update task-full-etch and task-essential-etch in tasks for D-I Etch RC1.
.
[ Steve McIntyre ]
* Update to the latest version of isolinux.bin, as found in syslinux
version 3.31-1.
.
[ Frans Pop ]
* Add boot option "auto" for powerpc (yaboot) and sparc to support the
installer's new auto-install functionality.
* Update exclude-udebs:
- S/390 installs do not support loading udebs from the CD, so exclude all
- add debian-edu-archive-keyring-udeb
- add ai-choosers, auto-install
- add some new gtk frontend related udebs
- globally exclude any discover udebs
- clean up obsolete exclusions
* Include "tape" images again for S/390.
* Makefile: remove line continuation inside perl command as that breaks with
GNU Make 3.81.
.
[ Steve McIntyre ]
* Change the default DEBVERSION from 3.2 to 4.0 to match etch.
.
[ Joey Hess ]
* Add new language tasks to task.list.
* Add files to support building KDE CDs/DVDs. These would be images
hardcoded to install the KDE desktop task, and to create them, configure
CONF.sh as follows:
TASK=tasks/Debian_etch-kde
KERNEL_PARAMS='tasks="kde-desktop, standard"'
MAXCDS=1
NOSOURCE=1
* Add similar files for Xfce.
.
[ Frans Pop ]
* Include floppy disk images again for i386.
.
[ Steve McIntyre ]
* Split final md5sum of images out from Makefile into tools/imagesums;
if we've made jigdo files then *don't* waste time running md5sum on
the images as well!
* Add the build date/time into a few more places so people can see them
more easily; add the build time into the .disk/info file.
* DEVEL BRANCH MERGE: Change mkisofs_opts usage: add a shell function
for the boot-$arch scripts to use rather than simply appending to the
$N.mkisofs_opts file directly. Needed for forthcoming multi-arch
support.
* Stop using the silly .raw extension for output images, use .iso instead
* Improve support for different disk types. Specify DISKTYPE in CONF.sh,
and it will affect both the output name later (so it's now possible to
distinguish between CDs and DVDs). Defaults to CD if not otherwise
set. DISKTYPE will be used more in the future for sizing too, but that
merge can wait a while longer yet. Closes: #361422
* Use DISKTYPE and COMPLETE values to create the file .disk/cd_type for
the installer to use.
* Add bpalogin near the top of the task list, as requested a long time
ago. Closes: #231583
* Dump the mkisofs command-line used for each CD into .disk/mkisofs
as we make it. Closes: #258099
.
[ Frans Pop ]
* Fixed double target in yaboot.conf; reported on IRC by jbrand.
.
[ Joey Hess ]
* Add a temporary hack in Debian_etch-kde to use sid d-i, to get a fixed
preseed that supports preseeding of tasks.
* build.sh: Don't force IMAGETARGET to bin-official_images when NOSOURCE
is set, if IMAGETARGET is also already set, as in a kde cd build.
.
[ Steve McIntyre ]
* Remove sh from the arch list in generate_di_list, to make builds quieter.
* Another devel branch merge: Change tools/grab_md5 to also look for
md5sums in the installer suite as well as the archive suite in
case they're different. Also removed old woody support, to clean
up the code a little. Updated Makefile and update-cd to match the
command-line interface change.
.
[ Frans Pop ]
* tasks/exclude-etch: clean up packages no longer in the archive.
* tools/generate_di+k_list: no longer include kernel-image packages for
powerpc as we don't support 2.4 based installs anymore. Closes #401429.
* Daily builds for amd64 now done by Andreas Barth; with thanks to
Kurt Roeckx for his past builds.
.
[ Colin Watson ]
* Include prep support on powerpc images again.
.
[ Steve McIntyre ]
* Add Packages and Sources files to the Release file; clean up the
checksums. Closes: #402267
* Lower-case package names at various points to work around apt bug
#402354. Fixes the long-standing warnings from list2cds about "Use
of uninitialized value in string comparison", and allows some poor
packages to make it onto CDs for the first time...
* Improve performance: rewritten tools/make_disc_trees in perl so we
can call add_packages directly as a perl function rather than via
fork/exec all the time. Re-arranged tools/add_packages to make
this work.
* Improved logging in add_packages.
* When we've finished making a CD tree in make_disc_trees.pl,
re-compress the gzipped Sources and Packages. Workaround for bug
#402482 in busybox gunzip code.
* Don't put ppc boot files on discs >1.
* Add more hfs options to m68k discs, to match ppc.
* Make list2cds more verbose in log output, especially when
dependencies have failed so a package can't be added.
.
[ Frans Pop ]
* CONF.sh: case can handle empty variables fine; whitespace cleanup.
* CONF.sh: don't determine ARCHES if already set; don't export CPU and
KERNEL.
.
[ Steve McIntyre ]
* Update documentation to at least vaguely match how things work.
* Added support for hook scripts in a few places around the CD
creation process, to help people customise their CDs. Quite a
lot of refactoring needed in make_disc_trees.pl needed to do that.
* Removed more cruft:
+ old defs in CONF.sh
+ old defs and rules in the Makefile
+ tools/add_secured
+ don't depend on jigdo-file any more
+ don't depend on apt-utils any more - we don't use apt-ftparchive now
+ don't depend on debootstrap any more - we grab and use the
latest version direct from the archive instead these days
+ don't suggest binutils-multiarch, we haven't needed that for mipsel
CDs since woody!
+ remove the SKIPMIRRORCHECK variable, now completely obsolete
+ change the mkisofs dep from (mkisofs | mkhybrid) to
(mkisofs | genisoimage)
+ remove Recommends on debianutils
+ remove Suggests on palo - we grab and use the correct version
direct from the archive instead these days
+ remove Suggests on delo - we grab and use the correct version
direct from the archive instead these days
* Other cleanups:
+ Make build_all.sh work again, adapting build.sh
+ Promote Suggests: on netpbm, syslinux to Recommends:
+ Make make_disc_trees.pl and start_new_disc fail better on errors
.
[ Frans Pop ]
* Add linux-image-2.6-prep for powerpc.
* Create a new tasks/forcd1-etch file and remove old cruft.
.
[ Steve McIntyre ]
* Gunzip the installation manual in .txt and .pdf format, so it's
useful on other platforms too.
* As a last-minute step before building images, fill in the TOTALNUM
value in the README files in the root of each image.
* Re-implemented exclude/unexclude support in make_disc_trees.pl instead
of in list2cds. Slight changes in semantics - the new code supports
regular expressions for matching package names (to make it easier to
exclude groups of related packages), and EXCLUDE<m> should be used in
preference to EXCLUDE for packages that are just being shifted to
later in the set by using UNEXCLUDE<n>.
+ Slightly change the output naming of the disc images to make it safer
to produce more then one type of multi-arch disc
* In start_new_disc, make sure that we call the (badly-named) add-bin-doc
so that we get README.html and README.txt created even for source discs.
* Cleanup of Etch version of REAMDE.html.in - use "disc" or "CD/DVD" rather
than "CD" in many places.
* Fix whitespace issue in boot-amd64. Closes: #406320. Thanks to Matthew
King for the patch.
.
[ Joey Hess ]
* Added an update-tasks target to the Makefile and moved the code out of
file header comments to there. Fix some bugs in passing.
* List packages for the various specific desktop tasks ahead of the non-key
packages for the general desktop task. Along with changes in tasksel 2.60
this should lead to a generally more useful set of packages on the desktop
CDs; instead of filling up with OOo, it will fill up with things specific
to the desktop environment.
* Updated task lists.
* Moved interesting-fromcd23 down to come after software from tasks in
priority.
.
[ Steve McIntyre ]
* Final (!?) upload before etch - time to actually close lots of these
bugs, and get the new code into a package.
