Hello everyone, I am playing around with live-build. So I see several packages called "live-task-*" (for example live-task-xfce), but I can not see any changes in the live-build tree, when I install them or not.
Checked through the manuals, but I found no information, what I have to do with it. Yes, live-task-xfce shall add XFCE to the live-build ISO, but I can not see any difference by adding just the entry "live-task-xfce" into the file "live.list.chroot" below ~/config/package.list and installing the package. What did I miss? Yes, I see, these are metapackages and want to install more packages (what I really NOT want on my building computer). The logic of this behaviour is not quite clear for me. I suppose, it shall show me and let me test, which packages are installed into the live-ISO. But if I do not want them on my building computer, I just need to add the entry into ~/config/package.list/live.list.chroot and it will work. Am I correct? Personally I think this is not a good way, as installing a package like task-live-xfce will install all xfce-packages,too. No good idea for several reasons. But someone might have good reasons for this. Whatever, the question is: What are these live-task-packages for and how shall they be handled correctly? Thank you for enlightening me! Best regards Hans
