Public bug reported: [Impact]
For the use of ubuntu-image classic image generation, it is required that livecd-rootfs supports a way to only generate the rootfs tree for a selected set of arguments (project, architecture etc.). By design ubuntu-image will use livecd-rootfs for preparation of the rootfs contents and then continue with building the image. Since ubuntu-image is backported feature-complete into artful, zesty and xenial, we would need the same change to be propagated to those stable series. [Test Case] * Install livecd-rootfs from -proposed * Create a temporary directory, cd into it * cp -a `dpkg -L livecd-rootfs | grep "auto$"` . * PROJECT="ubuntu-cpc" ARCH=amd64 IMAGEFORMAT=none lb config * PROJECT="ubuntu-cpc" ARCH=amd64 IMAGEFORMAT=none lb build * Make sure the build succeeds and that the current directory will have a chroot/ with the build rootfs contents [Regression Potential] The proposed change should be self-contained and not affecting any other code paths, but in the case of a very unlikely situation regular image builds could be broken by binary hooks not being executed. ** Affects: livecd-rootfs (Ubuntu) Importance: High Status: Fix Released ** Affects: livecd-rootfs (Ubuntu Xenial) Importance: High Assignee: Łukasz Zemczak (sil2100) Status: New ** Affects: livecd-rootfs (Ubuntu Zesty) Importance: High Assignee: Łukasz Zemczak (sil2100) Status: New ** Affects: livecd-rootfs (Ubuntu Artful) Importance: High Assignee: Łukasz Zemczak (sil2100) Status: New ** Also affects: livecd-rootfs (Ubuntu Zesty) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Also affects: livecd-rootfs (Ubuntu Artful) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Also affects: livecd-rootfs (Ubuntu Xenial) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Changed in: livecd-rootfs (Ubuntu Xenial) Importance: Undecided => High ** Changed in: livecd-rootfs (Ubuntu Zesty) Importance: Undecided => High ** Changed in: livecd-rootfs (Ubuntu Artful) Importance: Undecided => High ** Changed in: livecd-rootfs (Ubuntu Xenial) Assignee: (unassigned) => Łukasz Zemczak (sil2100) ** Changed in: livecd-rootfs (Ubuntu Zesty) Assignee: (unassigned) => Łukasz Zemczak (sil2100) ** Changed in: livecd-rootfs (Ubuntu Artful) Assignee: (unassigned) => Łukasz Zemczak (sil2100) ** Changed in: livecd-rootfs (Ubuntu) Status: New => Fix Released -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1730642 Title: Support generating a rootfs tree only To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/livecd-rootfs/+bug/1730642/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
