Good Morning everyone. I have a small problem with either Live Build (or the Debian Repositories) that is stopping me building a livecd and would appreciate some feedback or suggestions.
I am building a Squeeze based distro but pulling some packages from Sid such as the kernel and LightDM. I run through the build process and everything goes well up until this point below. "Get:16 http://cdn.debian.net squeeze/non-free amd64 Packages [124 kB] Fetched 15.2 MB in 1min 35s (160 kB/s) Reading package lists... Reading package lists... Building dependency tree... Reading state information... P: Begin creating manifest... P: Begin installing local package lists... Reading package lists... Building dependency tree... Reading state information...

Del lightdm-gtk-greeter 1.0.6-3 [30.4 kB] Del lightdm 1.0.6-3 [124 kB] root@michael-laptop:/home/michael/Cobber/uluru-minimal-amd64#" Now I know LightDM is available in the repositories because I downloaded it with apt-get download and placed it, and other debs, in the /config/packages.chroot/ and /config/packages.binary/ folders. LightDM is also listed in my preferences file to grab from Sid (it's not available in Squeeze) and I have a sid.bainary and sid.chroot file in archives. Does anyone have any idea what I am doing wrong or is there another issue? If you need any more information just ask and I'll supply it. Cheers. Michael. P.S. Happy New Year.
