Comments/Problems:

This problem was discussed already at the debian-boot mailing-list in this 
thread:
https://lists.debian.org/debian-boot/2016/03/msg00340.html
Today I told myself, it would be a good way of officially opening a ticket for 
this, to
report the installation inside KVM/virt-manager, now here it is.
Steve McIntire suggested, I debug this myself, but I think, that really the D-I 
team
needs to do something to fix this for everyone, so I include the verbose output 
of
lsinitramfs [initramfs.txt.gz] and dmesg [dmesg.txt.gz], more info to come, 
maybe.
I did another Stretch installation on a different device on Compact-Flash card 
in the
meantime, that also worked with BTRFS-root, it's actually for trying out LXC1.1

Package: hw-detect
Version: 1.116
Severity: important
Tags: d-i

On Linux on z Systems, there are two major disk storage environments,
the direct-attached storage disk (DASD) and SCSI over Fibre-Channel.

There are the s390-dasd and s390-zfcp d-i modules to configure and
enable DASDs and FCP devices.  Note that on s390x, disks are not
available by default to Linux and must be enabled in advance.

The s390-dasd and s390-zfcp both provide the harddrive-detection
dependency and, thus, each could fulfill the dependency to silenty
ignore the other.  That behavior does not allow to mix DASDs and
SCSI disk on single installation (except you call both manually,
for example, in the expert mode).

To improve and provide a "guided" flow, I have split the harddrive
detection dependency for s390-dasd and s390-zfcp as follows:

- s390-dasd provides harddrive-detection-dasd
- s390-zfcp provides harddrive-detection-zfcp

disk-detect depends on
  -> harddrive-detection-dasd
  -> harddrive-detection-zfcp

and continues to provide the harddrive-detection.

With this split, the guided installation will install disk-detect to
solve the harddrive-detection dependency.  In turn, disk-detect will
then rely on the s390-dasd and s390-zfcp d-i modules to provide DASD
and FC-attached SCSI disks.  If both modules fail, the user perceives
the default disk-detect behavior, for example, users might configure
iSCSI.

The other nice benefit of this dependency split is the seamlessly
enablement of multipath with disk-detect (through preseeding).
For s390, multipathing should be always considered when SCSI is used.
I probably will extend the s390-zfcp module to set disk-detect's
multipath debconf variable for usability.


I will attach a patch with changelog when I have received the bug
number for report.  For s390-dasd and s390-zfcp, I will also open
bug reports to implement the dependency chain.

Feedback is welcome.

Thanks and kind regards,
  Hendrik

Package: s390-dasd

Recently, a change lowered the priority of the question to low-level
format a DASD.  The "low" priority caused the question to be displayed
only in the expert mode (unless debconf priority has been manually
changed).

There are cases where users might want to low-level format a DASD
even if it is already formatted.  For example, if a DASD uses LDL
and the user wants to reformat the DASD as CDL.

Thus, increase the priority to "high" to be always displayed in
non-expert mode again.  Of course, depending on the format status
a meaningful default is set.

Thanks and kind regards,

Package: s390-zfcp
Version: 1.0.1
Severity: important
Tags: d-i

To improve and provide a "guided" flow, split the harddrive
detection dependency for s390-dasd and s390-zfcp as follows:

- s390-dasd provides harddrive-detection-dasd
- s390-zfcp provides harddrive-detection-zfcp

The disk-detect package depends on
  -> harddrive-detection-dasd
  -> harddrive-detection-zfcp

and continues to provide the harddrive-detection.  With this split,
installation on mixed DASD and SCSI disks are possible.  Also move
the module before the disk-detect module in the Debian installer
menu.

See also related Debian Bug #818586 for the disk-detect package.

Patch for the control file will follow.

Package: s390-dasd
Version: 0.0.35
Severity: important
Tags: d-i

To improve and provide a "guided" flow, split the harddrive
detection dependency for s390-dasd and s390-zfcp as follows:

- s390-dasd provides harddrive-detection-dasd
- s390-zfcp provides harddrive-detection-zfcp

The disk-detect package depends on
  -> harddrive-detection-dasd
  -> harddrive-detection-zfcp

and continues to provide the harddrive-detection.  With this split,
installation on mixed DASD and SCSI disks are possible.  Also move
the module before the disk-detect module in the Debian installer
menu.

See also the related Debian bug report #818586 for the disk-detect
package.

As usual, I will attach a patch with changelog and bug information.

Thanks and kind regards,
  Hendrik

To be honest I don't really feel like fiddling with this on Sunday, but I filed 
an
installation-report on the issue (it's minor):

Bug#758116: Every second year we are talking about a proper installer

I have been looking into this a bit and think I have a (compromise)
solution.

The main problem with tasksel is that it is based on debconf that has a
very limited user interface. Basically, it can just show a list where
one can select one or more items. This makes it impossible to have a
detailed selection of all available blends with all their tasks -- the
list would just get far too long: we have currently ~270 tasks in our
blends!

So, I would propose the following: At installation time, we include for
every blend (that wants to be there) one selectable item. Selecting this
item will install

* the "tasks" package of this blend
* all available tasks (or a subset of them? to be discussed)

When starting tasksel at run time, the list will then include a list of
available tasks for the selected blend(s).

To do this technically, we could create a new package with "Priority:
important" that just contains the tasks list. This package would then
get installed with the base system and available for tasksel at
installation time (right?). This way, the blends team would keep control
over the included blends and would not need to file a bug against
tasksel every time we want to adjust this.

Does anyone veto the creation of such a package?

We would also need to create an additional  metapackage for each blend,
containing all its tasks (or a blends defined subset). Such a task would
anyway be nice to enable a "one-stop install" with apt, f.e. with "apt
install astro-all".

This proposed way to present the blends in the Debian installer is very
limited for sure - volunteers are definitely welcome here. I'd take it
as "better-than-nothing" however.

Following the bug, we should decide which blends should be presented
there. For a few, it seems obivous to me:

* Debian Astro
* Debian Med
* Debian GIS
* Hamradio
* Debian EzGo
* DebiChem (?)
* Debian Games (?)

I'd rather not include Debian Science -- I would see no user base for it
as a whole (and we can only use a single default install). What about
Debian Junior? Debian Multimedia?

And there are a few blends, that don't have tasks lists: Debian Design,
FreedomBox, DebianParl.

And, finally, there is NeuroDebian which I guess could be included, but
this would require some input from them.

Best regards

Ole



Should apt-transport-https be Priority: Important ? (Asking to APT maintainers)

2016-04-03 Thread Charles Plessy
Dear APT maintainers,

while discussing the package contents of Debian cloud instances, the question
arose if it would make sense to install apt-https-transport on most Debian
systems, by setting its priority to "Important".

What do you think about this ?

I pasted below a summary of the discussion that happened on the debian-cloud
mailing list.  If there are inacccuracies or if you know other pros or cons, I
would be very glad to hear them in any case.

Have a nice day,

Charles

Bug#819883: debootstrap: please make the build reproducible

2016-04-03 Thread Reiner Herrmann

Hi!

While working on the "reproducible builds" effort [1], we have noticed
that debootstrap could not be built reproducibly.
The devices.tar.gz tarball contains devices in unsorted (readdir) order.

The attached patch fixes this by telling tar to sort the archive
members.

It makes not much sense security wise and gives you a false sense of
security. It actually sort of makes sense though, because people.d.o
is only https and there are some repos there, and it's somewhat annyoing
to have to install apt-transport-https first.

Then again, maybe it should only be standard.

In any case, we should first change APT to required (#819719)

That's correct. 

It gives you a false sense of security unless you don't upgrade
very often and pipelining works, in which case you have all downloads pipelined
and the individual sizes cannot be determined.

WRT Tor: I will get tor support merged at some point, because I think it is
absolutely not acceptable to have a fork of APT's https method in the archive 
that
just adds a few proxy settings. That makes no sense at all security wise.

Most mirrors won't anyway. 

(a) Almost nobody cares about that.
(b) Encryption increases the load
(c) You cannot easily distribute your repo using a CDN

How does openssl get in there, -https uses libcurl3-gnutls. Is that a 
Recommends somewhere? I'd
think debootstrap would not install those.

* Julian Andres Klode , 2016-04-03, 18:00:
The following other packages are installed: ca-certificates 
krb5-locales libcurl3-gnutls libgssapi-krb5-2 libk5crypto3 
libkeyutils1 libkrb5-3 libkrb5support0 libldap-2.4-2 libnghttp2-14 
librtmp1 libsasl2-2 libsasl2-modules libsasl2-modules-db libssh2-1 
openssl.

This increases the system's complexity.

libcurl3-gnutls recommends ca-certificates, which depends on openssl.

Thanks for the patch!

I found some more occurences of apt and aptitude.

I will commit it shortly, if noone objects.
