Is it a bug?
Yup, it's a bug in /usr/share/ltsp/plugins/ltsp-build-client/Debian/030-fat-client: if [ -n "$option_fat_client_desktop_value" ]; then FAT_CLIENT_DESKTOPS="$(echo $option_fat_client_desktop_value | tr ',' ' ')" EARLY_PACKAGES="$EARLY_PACKAGES $FAT_CLIENT_DESKTOPS" fi It is only respected if passed via commandline. The Debian/030-fat-client hook also has a couple minor other issues; I'll get it fixed upstream tomorrow, and try to get it into the upcoming Debian release. > I've read somewhere that the --fat-client parameter is Ubuntu specific, and > does not apply to Debian. The Debian implementation is a little different and it doesn't do much other than add packages to the list of packages to install. live well, vagrant
