Package: live-build
X-Debbugs-Cc: [email protected]
Version: 20230502
Severity: normal
Hi there,
I have used live-build 20210407 on Debian 11 to successfully build a large
number of Debian 11 based images. Now I'm using the same config and process
with live-build 20230502 on Debian 12 to build Debian 12 based images. There
appears to be a major regression with live-build 20230502 on Debian 12 when
using this APT pinning:
### config/includes.chroot/etc/apt/preferences.d/99backports ###
Package: linux-image-*
Pin: release a=stable-backports
Pin-Priority: 600
Package: linux-headers-*
Pin: release a=stable-backports
Pin-Priority: 600
Package: firmware-*
Pin: release a=stable-backports
Pin-Priority: 600
Package: nvidia-driver
Pin: release a=stable-backports
Pin-Priority: 600

With that APT pinning, live-build 20210407 on Debian 11 generates a Debian 12
ISO with the latest Debian Stable kernel (6.1.0) as well as the latest Debian
Backports kernel (6.4.0) that successfully boots and works as expected. Here's
a screenshot:
https://sourceforge.net/projects/spirallinux/files/dev/SpiralLinux-built-Debian11.png/download
Here's the full live-build config I'm using:
https://sourceforge.net/projects/spirallinux/files/dev/SpiralLinux-Cinnamon.tar.gz/download
However, with the exact same config but using live-build 20230502 on Debian 12,
it generates an ISO that shows both the 6.1.0 and the 6.4.0 kernels in the live
system GRUB boot menu (on an EFI system), but when selecting the 6.4.0 kernel
it boots into X11 and then completely freezes. I've confirmed this same
behavior with VirtualBox, Qemu, and real hardware. When booting into runlevel 3
it bizarrely says I'm running the 6.4.0 kernel and yet the 6.4.0 kernel doesn't
appear in /boot. Here's a screenshot:
https://sourceforge.net/projects/spirallinux/files/dev/SpiralLinux-built-Debian12.png/download
Just to confirm that it's not an issue with my config, I also built an image
with https://github.com/nodiscc/debian-live-config but added the above
mentioned APT pinning, and the exact same thing happened.
Here's the build log with live-build 20210407 on Debian 11 and the resulting
ISO:
-
https://sourceforge.net/projects/spirallinux/files/dev/SpiralLinux-built-Debian11.log/download
-
https://sourceforge.net/projects/spirallinux/files/dev/SpiralLinux-test-working.iso/download
And here's the build log with live-build 20230502 on Debian 12 and the
resulting ISO:
-
https://sourceforge.net/projects/spirallinux/files/dev/SpiralLinux-built-Debian12.log/download
-
https://sourceforge.net/projects/spirallinux/files/dev/SpiralLinux-test-broken.iso/download
Please let me know if you need any more information. Thanks!
