Package: simple-cdd Version: 0.6.5 Severity: normal Dear Maintainer,
I am including multiple profiles in my image, but during installation I am never prompted for which profile(s) to install, and instead only the default profile is used. The install log contains the following: Feb 6 18:35:32 anna-install: Installing simple-cdd-profiles Feb 6 18:35:32 apt-install: Queueing package less for later installation Feb 6 18:35:32 anna[2826]: (process:5107): loading simple-cdd templates...

I am building with the following command: build-simple-cdd --conf simple-cdd.conf --locale en_GB --keyboard gb where simple-cdd.conf contains the following: profiles="gw build" mirror_components="main non-free" local_packages="./local-packages/" export ARCH=amd64 export KERNEL_PARAMS="preseed/file=/cdrom/simple-cdd/default.preseed priority=critical" my ./profiles/ directory contains the following: $ ls profiles/ build.packages build.postinst build.preseed gw.packages gw.postinst gw.preseed The built ISO contains the following files in /simple-cdd/ /media/cdrom$ ls ./simple-cdd/ build.packages build.preseed default.excludes default.preseed gw.packages gw.preseed build.postinst default.downloads default.packages default.udebs gw.postinst simple-cdd.templates And simple-cdd.templates contains the default content: Template: simple-cdd/profiles Type: multiselect Choices: gw, build Default: Description: Select profiles profiles are a simple description of common system types. select all that apply. The only way that I can get simple-cdd to build an ISO which installs my profiles is to set auto_profiles="gw build" in the simple-cdd.conf, or to pass simple-cdd/profiles="gw build" as a kernel start parameter. This does not achieve the desired behavior as I wish to be able to select the profiles at install time, not have them hard-coded. -- System Information: Debian Release: 9.3 APT prefers stable-updates APT policy: (500, 'stable-updates'), (500, 'stable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 4.9.0-5-amd64 (SMP w/6 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_GB.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_GB.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE=en_GB:en (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) Versions of packages simple-cdd depends on: ii dctrl-tools 2.24-2+b1 ii debian-cd 3.1.20 ii lsb-release 9.20161125 ii python3 3.5.3-1 ii python3-simple-cdd 0.6.5 ii reprepro 5.1.1-1 ii rsync 3.1.2-1+deb9u1 ii wget 1.18-5+deb9u1 Versions of packages simple-cdd recommends: ii dose-distcheck 5.0.1-8+deb9u1 Versions of packages simple-cdd suggests: pn qemu-system | qemu-kvm <none> -- no debconf information
