not really, unless you provide an own repository with the patched package, and using a higher version on it (1.2.3-4 -> 1.2.3-4+justin or similar). this way, it would automatically be prevered over the normal package by apt. > I know LH_CHROOT_BUILD exists for running the package from > the host instead of the chroot "guest" but isn't intended to be used > ATM. well, non-chrooted builds work perfectly. the problem with it is, that you need to be sure about your host system, otherwise you end up tainting the live system. that's why normal people should not use it. i personally build live systems non-chrooted in a sid chroot on a sid host. as i know that the build chroot and the live system are both the same, i can be sure to not taint the live system.. and build images much faster as the coping/moving arround of the chroot is not needed in this method. -- Address: Daniel Baumann, Burgunderstrasse 3, CH-4562 Biberist Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Internet: http://people.panthera-systems.net/~daniel-baumann/ _______________________________________________ debian-live-devel mailing list [email protected] http://lists.alioth.debian.org/mailman/listinfo/debian-live-devel
