Package: fai-client
Version: 4.0.3
fai.conf: FAI=/var/lib/fai/config


Hello,

I can also confirm this behaviour. I also tested the patch[1] from GitHub.

This behaviour/bug(?) also breaks the softupdate.

When I first encountered this because installations failed I cloned a clean version of the config space into my nfsroot /var/lib/fai/config.

After cloning (via git://) (and dumping the contents of the .git directory into /var/lib/fai/config/) softupdate tells me that there is no git repository[2] in /var/lib/fai/config ("fatal: Not a git repository: '/var/lib/fai/config/.git'").

If I rm -rf /var/lib/fai/config && git clone REPO /var/lib/fai/config on every of the >~50 installations after installing the machine softupdate (just like the installation procedure) will tell me that I'm "in 'detached HEAD' state". But at least it works properly.

Is there a way to get this right without applying the patch myself (aka: Did I do something wrong?)? I can provide configuration files and logs if necessary.

Or do I have to wait until Testing is not frozen[3] any more so there will be the patch for the checking procedure of the config space ignoring that there is no .git folder? :-)


Best regards,
Andreas
