Package: live-config
Version: 3.0.23-1
Severity: normal

In Tails [1] we set:

    LIVE_NOCONFIGS="${LIVE_NOCONFIGS},sudo,policykit"

in /etc/live/config/noroot.conf, but with live-config 3.0.23-1 these
exceptions are *not* honoured (e.g. /etc/sudoers.d/live is created).
They worked fine until (and including) version 3.0.12-1.

For the record, appending `live-noconfig=sudo,policykit` to the kernel
command line works as expected even in version 3.0.23-1, so the issue
must have something to do with the /etc/live/config/* files.

Cheers!

no, not a bug.

if you use cmdline, then the *complete* set of required variables are
set according to your specification.

if you use config files, only those variables are set that you put
into the config file since we cannot guess the intention (like we can
when you use cmdline).

if you want to have all scripts run except a few, and doing that with
variables, then you need to specify both LIVE_NOCONFIGS and
LIVE_CONFIG_SCRIPTS in your config file, see the
'live-noconfig=*|noconfig=*)' case in /lib/live/config.sh.

oiow: you forgot to specify LIVE_CONFIG_SCRIPTS, closing.
