Bug#798163: [live-build] syslinux mbr.bin file still not found
Package: live-build
Version: 4.0.3-1
Severity: normal

Hello,
live-build 4.0.3-1 in Debian Jessie still gives a build failure with
syslinux as bootloader.
Grub is not supported with hdd-images so at the moment you cannot make
hdd images.
This bug was already submitted in Feb 2015 but was incorrectly assigned
as fixed. It seems something went wrong with pushing the new patched
versions to stable.
There is a patch to correct the problem:
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?filename=fix-mbr-path.diff;att=1;bug=778627;msg=55
live-build 4.0.3-1 also does not support LUKS encrypted persistence
partitions. This was fixed in live-build 4.0.5-1.
I am using 4.0.5-1 with the syslinux patch applied and both syslinux as
encryption work properly.
