anaconda in F34 and Rawhide recently stopped accepting params
without the inst. prefix, so 'rescue' does nothing except print
a warning now. We need to use `inst.rescue`. This has worked for
quite a long time so will be OK at least on all Fedoras and RHEL
8, not sure about RHEL 7.

The difference between the anaconda-install-{env,img}-deps packages is how
they treat dependencies. The -env package leaves some dependencies as weak to
allow less featureful builds. The -img package hard-requires everything
Anaconda could potentially use and ensures everything works.
For boot.iso, the latter is preferable. Its usage moves some things from the
templates to that package.
A post-installation script in fedora-live-base.ks actually modifies
Lorax (not idempotently) with the change in this commit while it is
running. This modification belongs directly in Lorax instead.
Note a subtle distinction in behavior that has been preserved here.
Lorax will copy the livecd-iso-to-disk script from the installroot
(if present). Running livecd-creator will copy it from the existing
root filesystem instead.
Since Fedora 30, license files are missing from the ISO filesystem
of live or installer images (including official builds). The source
path to these files changed when they were moved into a subpackage
named fedora-release-common (or generic-release-common).
Also, copy the license files from the installroot, rather than the
existing root filesystem.
There's no reason for it to run, it can't notify anyone. But disabling
the service, or masking it, doesn't work so remove the service files
from the rootfs.

mk-s390-cdboot has stopped working because the kernel outgrew the
hard-coded offset it used when creating cdboot.img. IBM now has a script
in s390utils that can do the same thing so use the upstream script
instead.
This drops mk-s390-cdboot script, switches the s390 templates to use
mk-s390image from s390utils.
It adds @ROOT@ to cdboot.prm, and sets inst.stage2 so that the installer
image will be found when booting the iso.

Some of the options have been removed, others are now the default.
MOTD still needs to be printed, the boot environment doesn't include the
pam motd module.

Previously this symlinked them to /dev/null, which didn't really
accomplish anything since they get recreated. So just remove them so
python can decide whether or not to recreate them.
When we stopped caring about ppc and ppc64, we changed several
instances of three-item tuples:
("ppc", "ppc64", "ppc64le")
into...this:
("ppc64le")
which is not a single item tuple, but just the string "ppc64le"
in some extraneous braces. It so happens that the right thing
still happened in all relevant cases , we think, but it's wrong.
There's no need to be using an iterator at all for a single
item, so just change them all to == "ppc64le" or != "ppc64le" as
appropriate.

AFAICS, the devices that need these firmwares - various boards
built by NXP, https://www.nxp.com - are all aarch64. So we don't
need to carry these firmware files in the installer env for other
arches.

Mellanox Spectrum devices are switches intended for data centers.
It is I guess feasible that someone might want to install Fedora
on one, but from the product pages and data sheets, I believe
they all have management interfaces that do not require this
firmware to work, and that's what you'd use if you needed a
network connection during OS deployment. The firmware is only
needed for the actual switched interfaces, and we don't need to
make those work during installation.

I based this on the output of a recent installer image build:
https://kojipkgs.fedoraproject.org/compose/branched/Fedora-33-20200904.n.0/logs/x86_64/buildinstall-Everything-logs/pylorax.log
I looked at every runtime-cleanup related error there and tried
to make appropriate changes. In many cases this means just
removing a line that isn't needed any more because the package
in question just went away or is no longer pulled into the
installer environment. In other cases packages changed name or
files moved around, and I tried to make appropriate updates. In
a few cases files moved to another package but I wasn't sure
enough it would still be safe to remove them so I just left them
in place. Most of the changes here I'm pretty sure should be
safe, though there *could* be unforeseen fallout from e.g. fixing
the removals from procps to be removals from procps-ng - it's
been years since that package was renamed, so something *could*
have started using those binaries in the meantime. I did at least
check that anaconda itself does not.

These are for devices that just aren't going to be needed during
install, like video encode/decode accelerators, TV capture cards,
webcams, and some sound firmwares that should probably be in
alsa-firmware but aren't. This is a fairly conservative cut, I
will split some possibly more controversial cuts into separate
commits for ease of detachment. The linux-firmware WHENCE file is
an invaluable resource in figuring this out.

blivet-gui-runtime requires PolicyKit-authentication-agent. If
we just let dnf pick what to satisfy that requirement with, it
picks lxpolkit, which requires gtk2. Specifying polkit-gnome
instead should I think give us a smaller footprint, its deps
seem quite small.

The expectation is that all environments where an editor might be
used should ship GNU nano by default and tools should activate it
when an "editor" is requested. This change should ensure that for
the install media runtime environment.

This reverts commit 6025da1421.
It ends up that using the install.img with qemu and PXE and fips=1 is a
common use case. Without vmlinuz in the install.img rootfs it has
nothing to run the check against.

Seems petitboot can't properly parse the live image grub config on ppc, thus
booting fails on bare-metal. Fix the problem by removing the obsolete 32-bit
entries.
The kernel in /boot is not needed. Keep the .vmlinuz*hmac file so that
fips mode can check it (this requires dracut-050 or later).

A change in glibc now requires /proc be mounted in order to run mknod
which is needed in order to run rpm from runtime-postinstall.
This drops that code from the template and moves writing the package
list into run_transaction, which already has all of the needed
information to generate the list.

Some of the files no longer exist, some of them have moved. In the case
of dracut the 98systemd directory was renamed to 98dracut-systemd, but
nobody noticed.
This updates the following:
* rename 98systemd to 98dracut-systemd so scripts are in the
install.img
* drop fedora-release removefrom, it now only has os-release
fedora-repos has the repo files, not anaconda, they are moved by
runtime-postinstall.tmpl
* Use initscripts to keep the /etc/init.d, chkconfig only has an empty
directory.
* gtk2-engines is no longer installed
* metacity doesn't include anything in /etc/
* /usr/share/X11/rgb.txt is no longer installed
* libgstbadallocators-1.0.so
The eject utility moved into util-linux and the package was dropped, but
since the runtime-cleanup template is using `removefrom util-linux
--allbut` it was never added to the boot.iso after the move.
This removes the package request for eject and adds it to the list of
binaries to keep from util-linux.

This adds cloud-init support to the vhd image.
Also limits the cloud-init datasource to Azure, and includes
cloud-utils-growpart to expand the filesystem to fit the available
space.
Resolves: rhbz#1754711
The python modules that Ansible depends on for Azure support are old,
and incompatible with Fedora. Drop support until the azure playbook is
supported with Fedora packages.
This uses a new Ansible module, ec2_snapshot_import, which is included
here until it is available from upstream.
It will upload the AMI to s3, convert it to a snapshot, and then
register the snapshot as an AMI. The s3 object is deleted when it has
been successfully uploaded.
Currently, Azure, vSphere, and OpenStack are supported. See
https://github.com/weldr/lorax/pull/826 for more details about this new
feature.
I've called the upload library "lifted" as a reference to Seuss'
The Lorax -- in the book, the Lorax lifts himself up by the seat of his
pants through a hole in the smog clouds, and they start calling him the
"Lifted Lorax."
This adds new features to the /compose route under API v1
Anaconda uses zram to allow installation on low memory systems.
We used to have a custom script called "zram-stats", that can be
used to test and debug zram usage during installation.
The script no longer works & zramctl now provides much better
output than our script ever did. So we decided to decommission
the old Anaconda provided script & use zramctl instead.
So change the cleanup rule in the Lorax boot.iso template
to keep the zramctl utility.

This new setting for 'find_multipaths' tries to prevent things like
LVM from going ahead and activating LVM on the individual disks/paths
until there is reasonable certainty (via a timeout) that the device
is not a component of a multipath set.
NOTE: 'smart' is supported by device-mapper-multipath v0.7.7 and later.
This creates a tar suitable for use with the anaconda kickstart liveimg
command. It adds the kernel, grub2, and grub2-tools packages to the tar
template.
