- Preserve timestamps when copying files into the CDs
- Make sure build.sh can run in -e (stop on error) mode
- Report if packages needed by debootstrap is missing on a CD
- Report how much space is reserved on each CD
- Handle boot-floppy directories without documentation
generates the md5sum of the template and adds it to the [Image] section.
A side efect is that the generation date apearing on the Info changes from
being the end date to being the start date. If this matters tell me and
I'll change it.
(including the one that comes with dpkg >= 1.10).
* Protect the call to add_secured by a stamp file. Closes: #147105
* Provide a customised isolinux image. We don't need to
recommend syslinux now.
cdimage.d.o
It's disabled by default, so this should not change the behaviour
for people that don't use it, although I don't think there's any reason
not to.
CONF.sh as DEFBINSIZE and DEFSRCSIZE
build.sh and build_all.sh now use these settings to calculate the
packages and source files to go on each disk, using bc - shell
arithmetic cannot cope with > 32-bit numbers
use the md5sum from the textutils package - dpkg's md5sum cannot
handle large files.
are referred to in the Packages files. Closes: #76178
* Does now handle sources for a local repository correctly. Closes: #76179
* Fix a bug in make extras. Closes: #76181
* Added a commodity local symlink for old-fashioned tools like multi_cd
which want local packages in dists/local/local. Closes: #76186
* Many thanks to Vladimir Michl who provided me patches for the 4 bug
mentionned above.
* Changed mirror_check to use case insensitive pattern matching for
detecting headers. Closes: #70838
* Documentation updates about the SIZELIMIT stuff and bootable CDs.
Closes: #72067, #68913
VERBOSE_MAKE variable added. allows the verbosity of the make process
to be controlled, by determining if the lines start with a @ or not
ATTEMPT_FALLBACK variable added. allows one to control whether build_all.sh
should bother to attempt to build a simple CD if the official build
fails.
Makefile:
o added "set -e;" to the start of most of the blocks of shell commands to
ensure that if one of the scripts fails, that fact is not ignored
o replaced many of the @'s with $(Q) and ensured that Q=@ by default.
This allows one to see what make is actually doing when it all goes
horribly wrong -- VERBOSE_MAKE in CONF.sh is used to control this
build_all.sh
o made it stop on error dependant on ATTEMPT_FALLBACK from CONF.sh
tools/pi-makelist:
These are the changes by J.A. Bezemer to get rid of files from the list
that are not available on ftp mirrors
tools/boot/potato/boot-alpha
check to see if the boot1 directory already exists, and skip its creation
if so. This is required to deal with the fact that this script gets called
for CD1 & CD1_NONUS, and making the directories twice fails, and is pointless
ppc instead of powerpc to stay within the 32-char limit (also with _NONUS).
Fixed one other "double CD1 issue" that caused the top-level README to
mention a 4-CD set where there were only 3. Now count only ?.packages
instead of *.packages.
* Patch from Michael Schlueter for a bugfix related to forcenonusoncd1.
* Patch from myself : s/*.packages/?.packages/ in tools/scanpackages !
It's a problem that appeared with the use of FORCENONUSONCD1 and LOCAL.
first CD where possible. We then make 2 copies of this, one with
non-US and one without. Useful for people wanting to create non-US and
US-safe CD sets without having to spend so much disk space.
Side-effects: The CD tress are now $(DIR)/CD<foo> instead of
$(DIR)/<foo>
