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).
The 32MiB size limit does not apply to upgrade.img since it's installed
to /boot by redhat-upgrade-tool instead of downloaded through TFTP. The
warning in rebuild_initrds will still be triggered by an upgrade.img
over the limit, but this doesn't halt the compose and it's probably not
a bad thing to know about.
Spaces cause various bugs like #923374 and #855849 , and it would be
better if we just didn't use them.
Note that there's a corresponding pungi change to go with this.

What I need is to make something like the traditional DVD which also
includes packages. At present this is apparently handled by the
entirely separate pungi tool.
At the moment for me, it's the least bad option to modify lorax to
inject data from an external source than to create a new tool, or
attempt to also modify pungi to do this.
This would also allow pungi's DVD creation to eventually be a set of
external templates for Lorax.
Commit d2ae92b4b3 patched up the download counter and progress
display. Yum no longer provides the needed information so now we get the
total number of packages from the start of the transaction.
This also turns off colors when stdout is not a tty, and only prints the
install progress once so that piping to a logfile isn't flooded with
useless characters.
Remove more drivers and remove plymouth and drm dracut modules. Only on
PPC64 initrd, all other arches have the full set of drivers and modules.
Resolves: rhbz#1060691
Fix "lorax -V" and add a "version is ???" to the log file so we can easily know
what version of lorax is used to build an iso.
Changed to try/import for versioning because the version file is autogenerated.
Some package scripts may call utilities using dbus. Since this is just a
chroot that will fail. This unsets DESKTOP and DBUS_SESSION_BUS_ADDRESS
to keep them from crashing.
When I switched execution over to execWith* functions I failed to
account for the use of CalledProcessError in various places. This
patch restores that behavior. All places that used check_call or
check_output now pass raise_err=True to the execWith* call.
Switch to using execWith* so that the command and its output can be
logged. To capture the output setup a logger named "program"
livemedia-creator captures all of this into program.log
Generally it's not a good idea for python libraries to set up loggers in
the body of the library.
Set up a NullHandler by default (as the logging module suggests), and
add a function to do the current logging setup during run().
From Harald Hoyer <harald@redhat.com>:
pollcdrom is used to poll for the install medium. A lot of CDROM drives
are not polled by the kernel correctly, so we have to actively poll for
the medium.
Mac boot images are optional. Don't require hfsplus-tools
by default, but warn the user that he needs to install them
if he wants to create mac boot images.
Install the anaconda dracut module during 'install', use it when
rebuilding initramfs, and clean it up afterward.
Also install '.buildstamp' into the initramfs (the anconda module wants
it).
Fedora 17 changes top level directories like /bin, /lib, etc. to
symlinks to the corresponding dirs in /usr/
dracut can convert old systems to the new layout using its convertfs
module.
Some repos may contain anaconda packages for more architectures,
so it's not possible to get the right buildarch.
This patch allows optional specifying of the buildarch on the
command line when running lorax.
If the buildarch is not specified manually, lorax tries to get
it from the anaconda package as before.
If there's no anaconda package in the repository, don't fallback
to the system architecture and continue, because this is pointless.
We need the anaconda package.
* add bcj arch dict to ArchData
* add "compression" settings back to __init__.py
* pass them to treebuilder.create_runtime
* pass them through to imgutils.mksquashfs
