Package: live-build
Version: 1:20230502
Severity: important
Dear Maintainer,
Built the live image for bookworm using live build (on bookworm as well as from
unstable). The built
image incldes raspi-firmware which is not meant for x86_64. I was installing
some dkms module which
will regenerate initrd etc and that failed with below error
update-initramfs: Generating /boot/initrd.img-6.1.0-13-amd64
W: Couldn't identify type of root file system for fsck hook
live-boot: core filesystems dm-verity devices utils udev blockdev dns.
raspi-firmware: missing /boot/firmware, did you forget to mount it?
run-parts: /etc/initramfs/post-update.d//z50-raspi-firmware exited with return
code 1
dpkg: error processing package initramfs-tools (--configure):
installed initramfs-tools package post-installation script subprocess returned
error exit status 1
Processing triggers for libc-bin (2.36-9+deb12u2) ...
Errors were encountered while processing:
initramfs-tools
E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)
The only way to fix this situation was to remove raspi-firmware in the live
image. For now I'm working
around the situation using following hook file which I use during live image
build
#!/bin/sh
set -eu
raspi_installed=$(apt-cache policy raspi-firmware | grep Installed: | awk
'{print $NF}')
if [ "$raspi_installed" != "(none)" ]; then
apt-get remove --purge -y raspi-firmware
fi
Can we avoid installing it on x86 architecture by default. If some one needs it
they can pull
it.
It was claimed to be fixed by 12.2 in this [1] but it probably only fixed
official live images
but not the live build? There is also another ticket [2] but does not give
proper details so created
a new one
Let me know if any other information is needed from my side.
