I would add that you might want to update your buildscript to what's in
the Wiki now. ;-)

While my test build of a stretch image on xenial is still running, it
looks rather promising.
Ubuntu does some rather brain-dead things wrt/ live-build, it seems, but
for what I found so far, I was able to add workarounds to the code.

(And next time, just file a bug. ;-) My Ubuntu box is currently one if
my slowest boxes, so I usually don't do any builds on it.)

I would add that it fails miserabily under Ubuntu 16.04 ... Live Build scripts 
seem completely broken on Ubuntu.

I had a chance to set up a stretch system today and try live-build on it. 
It fails just as Widu described it, when you select a netboot image. It 
will build iso-hybrid images just fine. 

The underlying issues are two: 

1) In jessie, live-build picks a sane default - I'm guessing syslinux - 
for all image types, when you don't specify one using the parameter 
--bootloader. In stretch, however, it picks grub-efi for netboot, even 
though it knows that it won't work. 

2) In jessie, the parameter is named --bootloader, in stretch, it is 
named --bootloaders (plural). 

An updated build script that should hopefully fix this is now in the Wiki.

<https://wiki.x2go.org/doku.php/doc:howto:tce#configuring_the_build> and

*ahem* As the guy behind X2Go-TCE-live, I beg to differ.  Debian Jessie
and Debian Stretch come with different versions of Live-Build.  It seems
the one in Stretch is acting up, so we will have to investigate what's
going wrong.  Since Ubuntu is likely to use the version of Live-Build
that is bundled in Stretch, it is not surprising that when building on
Stretch fails, it also fails for Ubuntu.
