Change logs for casper source package in Lucid

  • casper (1.236.3) lucid-proposed; urgency=low
    
      * Disable release-upgrade prompts in the live session (LP: #777759).
     -- Colin Watson <email address hidden>   Thu, 05 May 2011 12:31:54 +0100
  • casper (1.236.2) lucid-proposed; urgency=low
    
      * More fixes to the USB update-initramfs shim (thanks, Evan Dandrea;
        LP: #557023, #591207):
        - Make the shim a proper executable in
          /usr/share/casper/casper-update-initramfs and symlink to it if
          necessary at boot time, so that new versions of this shim are
          automatically installed when casper is upgraded.
        - Only copy each of $bootdir/initrd.img and $bootdir/vmlinuz if they
          exist (for example, initrd.img may exist without vmlinuz if we're
          running off a fresh live USB stick and the kernel hasn't yet been
          upgraded).
     -- Colin Watson <email address hidden>   Thu, 20 Jan 2011 14:26:57 +0000
  • casper (1.236.1) lucid-proposed; urgency=low
    
      * Make the USB update-initramfs shim cope with vmlinuz and initrd.img
        being in /boot rather than / (LP: #591207).
     -- Colin Watson <email address hidden>   Mon, 28 Jun 2010 16:57:36 +0100
  • casper (1.236) lucid; urgency=low
    
      * Check for LTS in the release name (LP: #558488).
     -- Evan Dandrea <email address hidden>   Wed, 21 Apr 2010 11:12:32 +0100
  • casper (1.235) lucid; urgency=low
    
      * Unbreak early command from previous commit.
     -- Mario Limonciello <email address hidden>   Thu, 15 Apr 2010 02:54:15 -0500
  • casper (1.234) lucid; urgency=low
    
      * Only bring the network up while running preseed/early_command if
        preseed/allow-network=true.
     -- Colin Watson <email address hidden>   Wed, 14 Apr 2010 15:56:40 +0100
  • casper (1.233) lucid; urgency=low
    
      * Bring the network up while running preseed/early_command.
      * Fix use of debconf passthrough frontend; DEBCONF_READFD and
        DEBCONF_WRITEFD were backwards, and DEBIAN_HAS_FRONTEND and
        DEBCONF_REDIR needed to be unset or else confmodule scripts would end up
        trying to talk to closed file descriptors.
      * Run debconf-communicate with a read-only template database and separate
        config databases, and copy any changed values back to the master
        databases at the end.  This allows us to use the noninteractive frontend
        rather than passthrough when running apt-get in preseed/early_command or
        dpkg to install driver updates, thereby ensuring that the template
        database is properly initialised (LP: #557011).
     -- Colin Watson <email address hidden>   Mon, 12 Apr 2010 23:41:09 +0100
  • casper (1.232) lucid; urgency=low
    
      * bump compcache size to 50% on live images for machines with less than
        512MiB. This makes sure we don't hit OOM errors on systems with only
        256MiB of RAM.
     -- Oliver Grawert <email address hidden>   Mon, 12 Apr 2010 08:10:06 +0200
  • casper (1.231) lucid; urgency=low
    
      [ Jonathan Riddell ]
      * Remove 37kubuntu_netbook_installer_link, now done with a patch in
        kdebase-workspace
    
      [ Colin Watson ]
      * If copying live media to RAM or disk, explicitly copy .disk, since *
        won't expand to include it (LP: #526305).
      * Cache /bin/plymouth and /sbin/usplash_write before ejecting the CD, in
        the hope that that helps with I/O errors on reboot (see LP #539027).
    
      [ Luke Yelavich ]
      * ubiquity-hooks/30accessibility: Copy the orca settings directory to the
        gdm home directory, to allow for preferred orca settings to be used in
        gdm (LP: #551515).
     -- Luke Yelavich <email address hidden>   Fri, 09 Apr 2010 14:00:51 +1000
  • casper (1.230) lucid; urgency=low
    
      * Don't save the hardware clock on live CD reboot; we used to do this in
        the sysvinit world, but it regressed when we switched to Upstart
        (thanks, Norm Pierce; LP: #436535).
      * When running update-initramfs on writable media, update initrd.lz rather
        than initrd.gz if it's present, and make the update process a bit safer
        while we're there (LP: #489736).
      * Handle toram and todisk=DEVICE options on command line (LP: #526305).
      * Policy version 3.8.4: no changes required.
      * Convert to source format 3.0 (native).
     -- Colin Watson <email address hidden>   Tue, 30 Mar 2010 11:41:24 +0100
  • casper (1.229) lucid; urgency=low
    
      [ Jonathan Riddell ]
      * Update scripts/casper-bottom/34disable_kde_services for lucid
    
      [ Evan Dandrea ]
      * Don't let apt try to auto-detect the CD-ROM device using udev.  We
        already know what it is, and using udev to find it again wont work
        for USB disks.
     -- Evan Dandrea <email address hidden>   Tue, 23 Mar 2010 11:42:00 +0000
  • casper (1.228) lucid; urgency=low
    
      * Update for the new libplymouth2.
     -- Steve Langasek <email address hidden>   Fri, 12 Mar 2010 18:37:02 -0800
  • casper (1.227) lucid; urgency=low
    
      * casper-md5check: port from usplash to plymouth.  LP: #500198
      * fix up our reliance on usplash, /dev/console elsewhere.  LP: #506418.
     -- Steve Langasek <email address hidden>   Fri, 12 Mar 2010 01:12:28 -0800
  • casper (1.226) lucid; urgency=low
    
      [ Colin Watson ]
      * Stop using removed nfsro option for NFS/unionfs (thanks, Bernhard
        Seibold; LP: #460781).
    
      [ Jonathan Riddell ]
      * Remove scripts/casper-bottom/48enable_kubuntu_netbook and ubiquity-
        hooks/48enable_kubuntu_netbook now enabled in kubuntu-netbook-
        default-settings
     -- Jonathan Riddell <email address hidden>   Wed, 10 Mar 2010 22:23:04 +0000
  • casper (1.225) lucid; urgency=low
    
      * Add ubiquity-hooks/49kubuntu_gnome_icon_cache to recreate the Gnome
        icon cache on Kubuntu CDs, removed by livecd-rootfs
     -- Jonathan Riddell <email address hidden>   Mon, 08 Mar 2010 11:47:01 +0000
  • casper (1.224) lucid; urgency=low
    
      * Remove ubiquity-hooks/35copy_wallpaper_cache as now implement it in
        ubiquity itself (LP: #530024)
     -- Didier Roche <email address hidden>   Mon, 01 Mar 2010 19:41:45 +0100
  • casper (1.223) lucid; urgency=low
    
      * Bind-mount /dev, /proc, and /sys into /root while running apt-cdrom.
      * Copy /lib/udev/rules.d/60-cdrom_id.rules into the initramfs to go with
        /lib/udev/cdrom_id, so that apt-cdrom will be able to find ID_CDROM=1
        entries when we run it.  This should stop update-notifier from
        repeatedly popping up during the live session.
     -- Colin Watson <email address hidden>   Tue, 23 Feb 2010 01:35:30 +0000
  • casper (1.222) lucid; urgency=low
    
      * scripts/casper-bottom/47une_ubiquity:
        - get back ubiquity favorite icon in UNE live (LP: #524381)
        - rename the script from 47unr_ubiquity to 47une_ubiquity as well
          as "UNR" mention
     -- Didier Roche <email address hidden>   Mon, 22 Feb 2010 14:01:25 +0100
  • casper (1.221) lucid; urgency=low
    
      * Remove the rest of the mythbuntu delta from 10adduser.  It will be
        maintained in the mythbuntu-live-autostart package instead so that
        users from ~mythbuntu-dev can administer it.
     -- Mario Limonciello <email address hidden>   Sun, 21 Feb 2010 20:22:00 -0600
  • casper (1.220) lucid; urgency=low
    
      * scripts/casper: calculate memory without "head" utility, thanks to
        Petar Bogdanovic (LP: #25496).
     -- Kees Cook <email address hidden>   Fri, 19 Feb 2010 14:04:18 -0800
  • casper (1.219) lucid; urgency=low
    
      [ Mario Limonciello ]
      * Disable casper-reconfigure from 22gnome_panel_data.  It doesn't (appear) to
        serve a functional purpose as the postinst does nothing different for laptops.
    
      [ Didier Roche ]
      * add 35copy_wallpaper_cache to copy the wallpaper cache created at boot time
        to the main user's directory. First boot will take it into account in
        ureadahead profiling
     -- Didier Roche <email address hidden>   Wed, 17 Feb 2010 19:14:53 +0100
  • casper (1.218) lucid; urgency=low
    
      * Allow dpkg and apt-get to be installed from within commands that operate
        in the chroot via early_command or driver updates. (LP: #521218)
     -- Mario Limonciello <email address hidden>   Tue, 16 Feb 2010 13:38:48 -0600
  • casper (1.217) lucid; urgency=low
    
      [ Luke Yelavich ]
      * ubiquity-hooks/30accessibility: Enable accessible login for the blindness
        and braile accessibility profiles.
    
      [ Colin Watson ]
      * Use egrep rather than 'grep -E' (LP: #512386).
    
      [ Julien Lavergne ]
      * 15autologin: Add support for LXDM autologin (LP: #511976).
    
      [ Evan Dandrea ]
      * Properly shut down debconf-communicate so that its database gets
        written (LP: #518272).
     -- Evan Dandrea <email address hidden>   Thu, 11 Feb 2010 08:25:53 +0000
  • casper (1.216) lucid; urgency=low
    
      [ Luke Yelavich ]
      * scripts/casper-bottom/30accessibility && ubiquity-hooks/30accessibility:
        - Remove code to disable pulseaudio, as it is no longer needed, and
          the supporting code in the pulseaudio package was removed a long time
          ago.
        - Set the default empathy theme to classic for blindness and braille
          accessibility profiles.
    
      [ Jamie Bennett ]
      * Speed up work around debconf-communicate. Replace several calls to
        debconf-communicate with one persistent invocation followed by
        confmodule calls.
      * Disable guest account by rm'ing rather than waiting for dpkg to
        remove it.
     -- Colin Watson <email address hidden>   Wed, 03 Feb 2010 16:41:57 -0800
  • casper (1.215) lucid; urgency=low
    
      [ Mario Limonciello ]
      * Support multiple preseed file/urlarguments on the kernel commandline
        rather than just selecting the last one and going with that.
      * debian/control: Set Vcs-Bzr.
    
      [ Jonathan Riddell ]
      * Add scripts/casper-bottom/48enable_kubuntu_netbook and ubiquity-
        hooks/48enable_kubuntu_netbook to enable Plasma Netbook workspace
        for Kubuntu Netbook Remix
     -- Jonathan Riddell <email address hidden>   Wed, 27 Jan 2010 13:55:42 +0000
  • casper (1.214) lucid; urgency=low
    
      * 15autologin: simplify the code with escape character evaluation
        (LP: #505140)
     -- Didier Roche <email address hidden>   Tue, 12 Jan 2010 08:57:05 +0100
  • casper (1.213) lucid; urgency=low
    
      * printf does not evaluate escape characters in the argument string.
     -- Evan Dandrea <email address hidden>   Mon, 11 Jan 2010 11:02:12 +0000
  • casper (1.212) lucid; urgency=low
    
      [ Martin Pitt ]
      * debian/control: Add ${misc:Depends}.
      * debian/control: Bump Standards-Version to 3.8.3 (no changes necessary).
    
      [ Colin Watson ]
      * 15autologin: Use printf rather than echo -e, since its behaviour is
        portable across shells.
    
      [ Evan Dandrea ]
      * Remove scripts/casper-bottom/42disable_apparmor.  Apparmor
        2.3.1+bzr1312-0ubuntu3 and ifupdown 0.6.8ubuntu26 now no-op when
        they detect the live CD environment.

  • casper (1.211) lucid; urgency=low
    
      * Readd scripts/casper-bottom/15autologin changes: derivatives have
        now a custom.conf file and still need autologin in live version.
        Merge with my previous fix proposed for sponsoring one week ago:
        use echo -e to enable \n interpretation (/bin/sh is busybox ash
        which behavior differs from vanilla ash interpretor) (LP: #500786)

  • casper (1.210) lucid; urgency=low
    
      [ Scott James Remnant ]
      * Dropped Vcs-Bzr headers, pushed to lp:ubuntu/casper
      * conf-hooks.d/casper: Changed to FRAMEBUFFER=y
    
      [ Colin Watson ]
      * Source /scripts/casper-functions and /scripts/casper-helpers only after
        processing 'prereqs' argument, to avoid lots of warnings with new
        initramfs-tools.
     -- Colin Watson <email address hidden>   Tue, 05 Jan 2010 16:54:54 +0000
  • casper (1.209) lucid; urgency=low
    
      * Revert the previous change to 15autologin and instead just make sure
        custom.conf does not exist.
     -- Evan Dandrea <email address hidden>   Mon, 04 Jan 2010 11:18:47 +0000
  • casper (1.208) lucid; urgency=low
    
      [ Martin Pitt ]
      * scripts/casper-bottom/25configure_init: sreadahead is no more, disable
        ureadahead instead.
    
      [ Didier Roche ]
      * scripts/casper-bottom/15autologin: Don't erase /etc/gdm/custom.conf but
        only append autologin on casper startup if needed. This avoids removing
        default session set in this file for ubuntu derivatives which use GDM.
        The script also check if the modification is already there for
        persistent usb keys. (LP: #498971)

  • casper (1.207) lucid; urgency=low
    
      * Drop 46_disable_services.  It didn't need to be running on "all" systems
        with casper installed.  Mythbuntu systems will pull this in via a package
        that is administerable via ~mythbuntu-dev.
     -- Mario Limonciello <email address hidden>   Tue, 24 Nov 2009 22:28:29 -0600
  • casper (1.206) karmic; urgency=low
    
      * Fix broken /cdrom writable test in 43disable_initramfs
        (LP: #450259).
