Repeating items (/boot/grub/loopback.cfg)

[Csordás Csaba <cscsordas@gmail.com>]

HI,

I think that there is a problem with
/usr/lib/live/build/binary_loopback_cfg (using the git version from
live-build).

After the build there are entries like this in loopback.cfg:
linux           /live/vmlinuz boot=live config boot=live components
boot=live components findiso=${iso_path}

However, in this case, --bootappend-live "boot=live components" was
also specified be me in auto/config, but it seems like there is
repetition even without that:
linux           /live/vmlinuz boot=live config boot=live components
quiet splash boot=live components quiet splash findiso=${iso_path}

Changing the 56th line of that file to:
LINUX_LIVE="${LINUX_LIVE}\nlinux\t\t/${KERNEL} ${APPEND}"

works around the problem, resulting:
linux           /live/vmlinuz boot=live components quiet splash
findiso=${iso_path}
which is the same as the syslinux entry is (except findiso of course).

Any advice on how to solve this properly?
