Package: live-build Version: 2.0.9-1 Severity: important
can't get systemwide configurations get included via chroot_local-includes. user config files get included but nothing under etc and the like. maybe a problem with ownership? dunno. i chowned and chmoded the stuff i need already dozens of times. last time i tried to make a live cd this way was about 1 1/2 years ago with the live-helper package on lenny and it worked great. now everything seems to be fucked up plus the manual sucks big time! is it too much asked to use a plain and simple docbook style sheet? why do i have to scroll down 6 pages on every site just to come to the text? have you ever tried to read your manual with a text based browser? i wasted about 12 hours of my precious time while trying to make a custom live cd this way, a task which i wasn't able to finish yet. if you ask me, the whole live build suite is totally unusable and sucks big time. you guys really messed this up. sorry for this unfriendly bug report but this looks like a serious regression to me. where is the point of making 'customized' cd's, if one can't even include a bunch of systemwide config files? this really sucks! thanks for wasting my time with crappy software! i swear to never use it again. bubo -- Package-specific info: -- System Information: Debian Release: squeeze/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.32 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_GB.utf8, LC_CTYPE=en_GB.utf8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages live-build depends on: ii cdebootstrap 0.5.7 Bootstrap a Debian system ii debootstrap 1.0.26 Bootstrap a basic Debian system Versions of packages live-build recommends: ii cpio 2.11-4 GNU cpio -- a program to manage ar ii gettext-base 0.18.1.1-3 GNU Internationalization utilities ii gnu-fdisk 1.2.4-3 Linux fdisk replacement based on l Versions of packages live-build suggests: ii dosfstools 3.0.9-1 utilities for making and checking ii fakeroot 1.14.4-1 Gives a fake root environment ii genisoimage 9:1.1.11-1 Creates ISO-9660 CD-ROM filesystem ii grub 0.97-64 GRand Unified Bootloader (dummy pa ii memtest86+ 4.10-1.1 thorough real-mode memory tester ii mtools 4.0.12-1 Tools for manipulating MSDOS files ii parted 2.3-4 The GNU Parted disk partition resi ii squashfs-tools 1:4.0-8 Tool to create and append to squas ii uuid-runtime 2.17.2-3.3 runtime components for the Univers pn win32-loader <none> (no description available) -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
