--- Begin Message ---Package: live-helper Version: 2.0~a7-1 Severity: normal With --binary-images 'iso usb-hdd', the case dispatch of "${LH_BINARY_IMAGES}" at /usr/share/live-helper/helpers/binary_syslinux:365 fails to match, resulting in line 407 of the same file mkdir -p "${KERNEL_PATH}" attempting to mkdir the empty string. Maybe --binary-images only supports a single image type at a time? If so, this behaviour isn't a bug. I expected it to support "iso usb-hdd" only because it's a plural (*images*, not image). PS: I'd have isolated the problem faster if live-helper's case dispatches had a fallback clause along the lines of *) if test -n "$DEBUGGING_IS_ON" then echo >&2 "<magic hash>: Execution probably shouldn't reach this point." fi;; ...where <magic hash> is a different short string in each case. Then, when seeing the problem in lh build --debug, I could have simply grepped for that magic hash. Better than a magic hash would be "${BASH_SOURCE[0]}:$LINENO", but it's a bashism. -- Package-specific info: -- System Information: Debian Release: squeeze/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'testing'), (500, 'stable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 2.6.26-2-xen-amd64 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_AU.utf8, LC_CTYPE=en_AU.utf8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages live-helper depends on: ii cdebootstrap 0.5.5 Bootstrap a Debian system ii debootstrap 1.0.20 Bootstrap a basic Debian system Versions of packages live-helper recommends: ii gettext-base 0.17-9 GNU Internationalization utilities Versions of packages live-helper suggests: ii dosfstools 3.0.9-1 utilities for making and checking ii fakeroot 1.14.4-1 Gives a fake root environment ii genext2fs 1.4.1-2.2 ext2 filesystem generator for embe ii genisoimage 9:1.1.10-1 Creates ISO-9660 CD-ROM filesystem ii memtest86+ 4.00-2.2 thorough real-mode memory tester ii mtd-utils [mtd-tools] 20090606-1 Memory Technology Device Utilities ii mtools 4.0.12-1 Tools for manipulating MSDOS files pn parted <none> (no description available) ii squashfs-tools 1:4.0-6 Tool to create and append to squas ii sudo 1.7.2p1-1 Provide limited super user privile ii syslinux 2:3.83+dfsg-3 utilities for the syslinux bootloa ii uuid-runtime 2.16.2-0 runtime components for the Univers pn win32-loader <none> (no description available) -- no debconf information
