In addition to the existing root/ overlay directory which
applies always there can now also be profile specific overlay
directories. If an overlay directory should be applied for
a specific profile this can now be done by placing this data
in a directory that is named the same as the profile name.
The new element controls the behavior of the repart/resize code
in the oem-repart dracut module. By default the repart/resize
happens on every reboot and therefore also allows for disk
geometry changes during the livetime of the machine. If the
element is set to false the repart/resize operation happens
only once and then never again. To check for this condition
a new profile environment variable kiwi_rootpartuuid which
holds the PARTUUID of the root partition has been added to
the disk builder.
With the new Fstab class from prior pull request there is an
opportunity to handle all fstab related actions to be done
by that class. This commit extends the Fstab class with an
add_entry method such that we can avoid the extra lists
holding raw fstab lines in e.g the disk builder. In the end
all fstab related data is stored in an instance of the Fstab
class. This also extends the KIWI api by an fstab management
class. Related to #1329 and #1349
This commit makes sure to empty RPM macros files are created during
the build. Additionally it also ensures that no needless `rm` and `mkdir`
calls are done.
Fixes#1316
This commit refactors the use of Path.which in several parts of the
code. Since dd4d2ed78 the Path utility is capable to run Path.which
on certain chroot env, thus no need to adapt the PATH environment
variable.
Fixes#1281
Post image build metadata like the packages file which are
created from data produced by the package manager can contain
multibyte characters and should be written into files opened
with the UTF-8 encoding. The same applies to the image imported
XML description. This Fixes#1290
This commit makes home attribute of users definition optional. This way
the home directory is created according to the distribution defaults.
Note that `-m` option is passed to user add, thus the home directory is
requested to be created even without having an explicit home path
defined.
Fixes#1025
