Bug#487404: dont copy code from laptop-detect
This is the code in question from debian-edu-profile that is using the
laptop-detect result:
# Activate our and Debians Laptop task if a laptop is detected
if is_laptop; then
log "Detected a laptop"
tasksel="${tasksel:+$tasksel, }Laptop, DebianEdu laptop packages"
else
log "Did not detect a laptop"
fi
I guess we could move it to run after base-installer, and avoid the
problem completely. We would then need to extract the current tasksel
setting and replace it with one including the two laptop tasks.
Testing this code, I discovered that it did not work because
dmidecode-udeb was not installed. I've added it as a dependency in
svn, fixing it for now, but it might be better to use the installed
laptop-detect instead of tracking these changes ourself.
Happy hacking,
