Hi, I'm facing an issue I didn't when playing with etch's d-i. I'm trying to customize it's rootskel-gtk with no success. In a lenny system, I did:
$ apt-get source debian-installer So debian-installer-20090123lenny4 is downloaded and untarred. I also did: $ apt-get source rootkskel-gtk $ cd rootskel-gtk-1.15 modified some things and: $ dch -i To add a changelog entry as myself as author and changed it's version to 1.16 $ dpkg-buildpackage and the package is build without a signature. $ cd .. $ cp rootskel-gtk_1.16_i386.udeb debian-installer-20090123lenny4/build/localudebs/ $ make reallyclean My sources.list.udeb.local is: deb http://localhost/debian-mirror lenny main/debian-installer Since I've got a mirror from lenny repository. And the generated sources.list.udeb is: deb copy:/path/to/my/work/dir/debian-installer-20090123lenny4/build/ localudebs/ deb http://localhost/debian-mirror lenny main/debian-installer deb http://www.debian-multimedia.org lenny main/debian-installer Issuing: $ fakeroot make build_cdrom_isolinux build_cdrom_gtk Which generates d-i nicelly, but I still getting rootskel-gtk from official repository (in my case, my mirror): $ grep rootskel-gtk dest/MANIFEST.udebs rootskel-gtk 1.15 i386 Although in my localudebs dir has 'Packages' generated with rootskel-gtk-1.16 entry in it , so the directory was processed. I've tried to create a preferences.udeb.local as: Package: rootskel-gtk Pin: version 1.16 Pin-Priority: 1001 So I've got: $ make reallyclean $ LANG=C fakeroot make build_cdrom_isolinux build_cdrom_gtk 2>&1 | tee build.log [...] Building dependency tree... Package rootskel-gtk is not available, but is referred to by another package. This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or is only available from another source E: Package rootskel-gtk has no installation candidate make[4]: *** [stamps/get_udebs-cdrom_gtk-stamp] Error 100 make[3]: *** [_build] Error 2 make[2]: *** [build_cdrom_gtk] Error 2 make[1]: *** [_build] Error 2 make: *** [build_cdrom_isolinux] Error 2 So, It's clear that the modified rootskel-gtk (version 1.16) is not getting selected for installation. But, why ? Now udebs must be signed ? Is there any other issue I'm forgetting ? Thanks a lot in advance for any help.
