I originally added --add-template to support doing something similar
to pungi, which injects content into the system to be used by default.
However, this causes the content to be part of the squashfs, which
means PXE installations have to download significantly more data that
they may not need (if they actually want to pull the tree data from
the network, which is not an unusual case).
What I actually need is to be able to modify *both* the runtime image
and the arch-specific content. For the runtime, I need to change
/usr/share/anaconda/interactive-defaults.ks to point to the new
content. (Although, potentially we could patch Anaconda itself to
auto-detect an ostree repository configured in disk image, similar to
what it does for yum repositories)
For the arch-specfic image, I want to drop my content into the ISO
root.
So this patch adds --add-arch-template and --add-arch-template-var
in order to do the latter, while preserving the --add-template
to affect the runtime image.
Further, the templates will automatically graft in a directory named
"iso-graft/" from the working directory (if it exists).
(I suggest that external templates create a subdirectory named
"content" to avoid clashes with any future lorax work)
Thus, this will be used by the Atomic Host lorax templates to inject
content/repo, but could be used by e.g. pungi to add content/rpms as
well.
I tried to avoid code deduplication by creating a new template for the
product.img bits and this, but that broke because the parent boot.iso
code needs access to the `${imggraft}` variable. I think a real fix
here would involve turning the product.img, content/, *and* boot.iso
into a new template.

ldconfig runs at boot time, and some libraries apparently aren't setup
properly, so the config is needed to point to their directories.
(cherry picked from commit f130efdbc2)
We don't need biosboot partitions, and the urls should point to rawhide.
On minimal installs dracut needs to have tar and dracut-network
explicitly included.
The directory where the --logfile is located is also used for other log
files and for the anaconda logs when using --no-virt. Create the parent
directories if they don't exist.
This package no longer contains anything that we actually use. Removing
it also removes gnome-themes, which we needed for the metacity theme but
which is now handled by anaconda, and gtk2-engines.
fedora-gnome-theme provides gnome-themes-standard, from which we remove
everything except a metacity theme file that metacity doesn't actually
use. Remove fedora-gnome-theme entirely and manually add the font
dependency that it was pulling in.
--make-pxe-live target generate live squashfs and initrd for pxe boot.
Also generates pxe config template.
--make-ostree-live is used for installations of Atomic Host. Additionally to
--make-pxe-live it ensures using deployment root instead of physical root of
installed disk image where needed. Atomic installation needs to be virt
installation with /boot on separate partition (the only way supported by
Anaconda currently). Content of boot partition is added to live root fs so that
ostree can find deployment by boot configuration.
Previously if there was an error during a novirt installation that
didn't exit the process there was no way to detect it. This uses the new
--remotelog option for anaconda to monitor the logs for errors using the
same criteria as it does when monitoring a virt install. If there is an
error the anaconda process will be terminated and the logs will be
gathered up into ./anaconda/
Virtual machines easily get starved for randomness, and Anaconda insists
on sufficient amounts of entropy when the user requests LUKS disk
encryption. As a result, such installations can hang until Anaconda gives
up (after 10 minutes) and makes do with whatever entropy is available.
The virtualization host can feed randomness to the guest, unblocking the
installation. However, the guest can only consume that randomness through
the virtio-rng module. Let's not remove that module.

Recently, Fedora has been trying to do a 3 product split. As part of
that, lorax was changed to do "installpkg lorax-product-*" via
provides.
I think that approach is awkward; a much simpler approach is to simply
specify the product package as input to lorax on the command line, via
external rel-eng scripts.
This patch therefore adds --includepkg (and we should probably add an
option to remove the implicit lorax-product-* glob).
