This patch catches the case when LH_APT is "apt", its default value. This
was causing build failures when using a local live-initramfs .deb.

The loop-aes-utils sets a umask in its update-initramfs configuration,
causing initrds to have "0600" permissions which causes boot failures
when offering the files over netboot or similar.
The justification given by loop-aes is that, as it supports encrypting
against embedded GPG keyrings, the keys would be compromised if the files
were group- or world- readable. However, as live-helper does not support
this feature, it is safe to simply correct the permissions.

mksquashfs has a nasty habit of segfaulting when creating an image where
an image already exists. This can happen, for example, if you are
performing multiple runs of lh_binary and the build breaks for some reason.
This is almost certainly a bug in mksquashfs; I will look into finding a
suitable testcase.
This patch repacks the initrd when using the d-i netboot images in order
to incorporate a preseed.cfg if it exists. Before this patch, preseeding
of d-i netboot images was not possible.
Repacking the initrd has the additional advantage of being able to preseed
the first few questions of the installation process.

The code which determined whether to use the netboot d-i images was the
inverse of the code which determined whether to create a local package
pool: this patch merges the two.
This patch additionally ensures that setting "businesscard" whilst building
an ISO image will install the d-i netboot images; this was causing d-i
failures when it couldn't find its (non-existent) package pool.

We must use "aptitude install <pkgname>" to install dependencies of a
dpkg-installed <pkgname>, or aptitude's resolver will remove it. apt-get
does not have this "feature".
This was causing a problem when using a custom versions of live-initramfs
as they would be removed, causing a boot failure.

Using --no-clobber at the same time as -O<file> results in <file> being
created with no contents, which was resulting in (broken) zero-byte d-i
kernels and initrds.
The patch is simple -- simply remove --no-clobber: wget -O<file> <url> will always download <url> to <file>, regardless of how
many times it is run.

There is no need to create a package pool when creating a netboot Debian
Live image or when the LH_DEBIAN_INSTALLER is set to "businesscard".

This patch also modifies the configuration logic to ensure that setting
LH_DEBIAN_INSTALLER="enabled" whilst creating a netboot image will install
the netboot variety of d-i.

Apt in lenny also supports tracking of 'orphaned' packages. If aptitude is
installed, apt can't be removed, so by switching to apt making the default
images a tiny bit smaller. And, aptitude got mainly default because of the
sarge->etch update recommendation.
