Recently all Anaconda files required only for the live installation
(the liveinst script, the desktop file and others) have been split into a sub-package
called anaconda-live.
This was done to prevent these files from littering both network
installation images as well as user systems when Anaconda gets pulled
in as a dependency during a package installation transaction.
At the moment anaconda-live is stilled pulled in as a direct dependency
of the anaconda-gui sub package, but once this commit has been merged
into the Fedora kickstart repository, we can drop this temporary
dependency, removing the package from non-live installations.
It was removed from the @core group in fedora-comps d7faeb5,
but we are still using stone-age sysv-style scripts for the
early boot live image setup stuff (livesys and livesys-late),
so we need it installed in live images. Without this, lives are
utterly broken, because livesys fails almost immediately and
does not do any of the expected live customizations.

For livemedia-creator builds, inject install code into the lorax
template live/x86.tmpl that copies the script livecd-iso-to-disk
into the .iso filesystem at /LiveOS when livecd-tools is present in
the install image. This fixes commit 18d30b3, which failed in this.
From Adam Williamson:
The Python Classroom spin images no longer build in recent Rawhide,
because of a dnf behaviour change that exposes dependency issues as
failures rather than hiding them by silently excluding packages. (This
change will likely get into F29 soon too).
The issue is this. fedora-live-python-classroom.ks includes
fedora-live-minimization.ks , which does this:
-sane-backends
but it also includes fedora-live-workstation.ks, which includes fedora-
workstation-common.ks, which does this:
@gnome-desktop
...and @gnome-desktop includes sane-backends-drivers-scanners and
libsane-hpaio, which both require sane-backends.
Until recently dnf was simply silently excluding sane-backends-drivers-
scanners and libsane-hpaio from the image, to 'resolve' this. Now it
fails on the problem, and we get to make a choice.
You basically have three options:
1. Just drop fedora-live-minimization.ks from fedora-live-python-
classroom.ks . It's pretty old and random at this point. It's basically
trying to drop printing and scanning stuff to save a bit of space. Do
you actually want printing and scanning not to work on your image?
2. Keep fedora-live-minimization.ks but explicitly add back `sane-
backends` to %packages in fedora-live-python-classroom.ks . This would
override the exclusion and fix the dep issue, and include the scanning
bits in the image.
3. Keep fedora-live-minimization.ks and add excludes for sane-backends-
drivers-scanners and libsane-hpaio to fedora-live-python-classroom.ks .
This would lose scanning support, and save a bit of space.
I went with option 1.
Make sure that we do not install grubby on the
container base image.

live-minimization is kinda old, and dates from the time we were
trying to fit in CD size. No-one cares much about that any more.
One of these exclusions (sane-backends) was contradictory for
Cinnamon lives and broke the compose since the recent dnf change
to fail compose on dependency issues (because the cinnamon comps
group explicitly includes sane-backends-drivers-scanners, but
this exclusion excludes one of its deps). To resolve that,
@grinnz is fine with just dropping the use of live-minimization
from the cinnamon images entirely, so this does that.

All these packages used to be explicitly default or mandatory
in comps groups that were on live images, but no longer are.

foomatic requires colord. Before dnf-3.5.1-2.fc30, this meant
foomatic was being silently excluded from MATE images. Now it
means they fail to compose. Let's drop the exclusion so the
images compose again. If the MATE maintainers want to reduce
size, they will have to explicitly exclude foomatic (and be OK
with doing so, as it probably breaks printing).

These are aiming to leave some weak dependencies out of minimal
images, it seems. From @core, gnutls recommends trousers which
requires trousers-lib, and iproute recommends iproute-tc.
However, both are *hard* dependencies of things that include
fedora-disk-base.ks. fedora-disk-workstation.ks includes
fedora-disk.base.ks and fedora-workstation-common.ks, so it
installs the Workstation package set, from which gnome-boxes
ultimately requires iproute-tc and NetworkManager-openconnect
ultimately requires trousers-lib.
Prior to the change I recently got merged into DNF, DNF would
silently drop gnome-boxes and NetworkManager-openconnect from
the Workstation disk image because of this. With the change, it
errors out on creation of the image.
To make the image compose again and actually include the right
packages, let's move the exclusions to fedora-minimal-common.ks,
where they make more sense anyway. This does mean the packages
will be pulled into other non-minimal images even if they're
not strictly required there, but that doesn't seem like a big
problem.
