Bug#770170: --mirror-chroot-backports not implemented

[Craig Noble <craig.noble@calnexsol.com>]

Hi Orest, 

Thanks for the reply.

The "latest" documentation still refers to --mirror-chroot-backports, :(
http://live.debian.net/manual/current/html/live-manual.en.html#380

Looking at the git, I can see that it is still not implemented (commit from 8 days ago in debian-next branch).
http://live.debian.net/gitweb/?p=live-build.git;a=blob;f=scripts/build/config;h=e3b1e517010820588470dfd5345364436eac60fb;hb=ef03f67f817a9485f61975480985588db9cd6ea0

It's just a little annoying that I can't mirror the backports, hackish workaround is to modify the build system's /etc/hosts file. :(

Cheers,
Craig.

Hi!

Dear Craig Noble,

I think that in:
> According to the documentation
> http://live.debian.net/manual/4.x/html
/live-manual.en.html#380

'4.x' is the version of the documentation itself (i mean live-manual) not live-build.

Try to check most up-to-date manual
http://live.debian.net/manual/current/

To know what options are implemented in your live-build version I think you need to check that on your system. -> man lb config

I am also fighting with live-config and live-build so I know what you mean. Try to use latest git version (of live-build) instead there should be more bug fixes.

Cheers!
