Use "apt-cache show" instead of "dumpavail" in the Makefile.
Using "dumpavail" dumps all packages, while we're only interested in one
specific package. This wasts a log of cycles and time when many packages
need fixing.
Use "show $pkg" to directly dump only the requested package.
Use "--no-all-versions" to show only the candidate for installation.
Closes: #759343. Thanks to Philipp Hahn for the patch.
The code was assuming that the first line of output was something like
this (and this is the case of the cd builder machine that uses a custom
built xorriso):
> GNU xorriso 1.2.6 : RockRidge filesystem manipulator, libburnia project.
But the output of the version packaged in Debian does not have the GNU
string:
> xorriso 1.3.2 : RockRidge filesystem manipulator, libburnia project.
We fix this issue by extracting the version from the line starting with
"xorriso version" which does not have this discrepancy.
debian-installer now has extra steps to create a grub_embed file which
can be passed to xorriso's --embedded-boot option. Add corresponding
code in debian-cd to use it to make images USB bootable.
Patch from Samuel Thibault.
I removed this and more earlier while cleaning out undocuented cruft. (I
have not added back module-assistant so far, since it needs build-essential
which would pull in additional dependencies.)
When making a custom server netinstall ISO, it may be desired to not
have MS Windows files. Unfortunately there's currently no check for
loadlin.exe, so install.bat gets created regardless. Fix this.
debian-cd currently expects there to always be isolinux/desktop/*
files and a dtmenu.cfg file, failing if they are missing. Make it so
debian-cd can cope whether those files are present or not.
The correct path for debootstrap code is /usr/share, not /usr/lib; use
that and assume it now.
Cope with the $(CODENAME) script not existing, and create a symlink to
sid where necessary. Just found in jessie - debootstrap needs
updating.
* The traditional "last upload before the stable release" upload...
[ Robert Spencer ]
* Use ARCHIVE_KEYRING_PACKAGE and ARCHIVE_KEYRING_FILE parameters to
not hardcode debian-archive-keyring and let derivatives use their
own keyring.
* Add further support for missing win32-loader.ini. Closes: #705594
* Allow for override of distro name etc. in grub.cfg for EFI boot too.
Closes: #705610

* Tweak handling of {udeb,base}_{include,exclude} files so multi-arch
builds should work better. Closes: #703436
* Remove the dpkg check for debootstrap version before passing the
--no-check-gpg option; we're not going to support debootstrap versions
so old that they don't support this flag, *and* the dpkg-query call
doesn't give us the right version anyway - we're using an extracted
copy from the archive, not the one that (might be) installed on our
build machine.
