(after a succesful install)

# /target/usr/bin/du -hs lib sbin usr var
13M lib
2.8Msbin
4.3Musr
22M var

(var space is taken by cdebconf templates, which I think is
basically a lot of text translated to a lot of languages)

How about moving /usr and /var to tmpfs then? See attachment.

That was it, yes, but apparently it indeed terminates correctly with the
newer glibc 2.18.  I'll now check whether that works in d-i.

Ah, no: did you have libc0.3-pic installed when you tried?  Without it,
mklibs doesn't actually reduce libc.so.

Nope, I didn't.  Now I can reproduce the problem:

Thanks for keeping this list going. I don't feel I've the chops to
chime in most of the time, but I am an avid reader.

Bug#739824: partman-efi: The term "EFI boot partition" is non-standard and adds to community confusion

2014-02-22 Thread Rod Smith
Package: partman-efi
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

The partman-efi package refers to the EFI System Partition (ESP) as an "EFI
boot partition." The latter name is non-standard; AFAIK, it's used *only* in
partman-efi and tools derived from it, such as Ubuntu's ubiquity. It's
therefore potentially confusing to users, who may wonder how (or even if) the
"EFI boot partition" relates to the ESP.

Unfortunately, this problem is pretty widespread. The EFI standards documents
all use the term "EFI System Partition" or "UEFI System Partition." Although
the acronym "ESP" is in common use, it doesn't appear in the EFI spec. GParted
and parted identify an ESP as having its "boot flag" set, which is a phenomenal
fail on a user interface level -- but that's not the point of this bug report.
My own GPT fdisk (gdisk) uses the term "EFI System" (with "partition" being
implicit). Users often refer to the "EFI partition" -- see for instance
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UEFI.

As somebody who communicates with users in forums, I find that there's a lot of
confusion about the ESP because of the number of unique names that are being
used to refer to the same thing. Hence this bug report: If Ubiquity simply
changes "EFI boot partition" to "EFI System Partition," one source of confusion
and frustration will be eliminated.

Note that I've also filed a bug report (#1283493) against Ubuntu's ubiquity on
this issue.

Bug#562906: mklibs: fails on libc on hurd-i386

[Petter Reinholdtsen]
> Nope, I didn't.  Now I can reproduce the problem:

But the original patch do not seem to work any more.  I am unable to
find the /usr/lib/libc_pic/shlib.lds file, and mklibs just fail with
this error when the patch is included:

  /usr/bin/ld: cannot open linker script file
/usr/lib/libc_pic/shlib.lds: No such file or directory

Anyone have any idea where that file went?

You missed this part of what I wrote:

“the simple solution would be to have libc*-pic provide
/usr/lib/libc-pic/shlib.lds”

libc*-pic don't provide that shlib.lds script yet.

No. That is not the problem. It has network. There is simply no
ata-modules or sata-modules references anywhere in the initrd. It never
downloads them because it doesn't know to get them.
