Source: live-build Version: 1:20250814 Tags: forky sidI have been unable to use test/rebuild.sh to build unstable or testing images the past 2 days. From the terminal output, the error seems to happen at the binary_package-lists stage. The tree walking error comes from apt, according to Debian Codesearch. Steps ******* Install Debian Testing with GNOME After install: sudo apt install git live-build git clone https://salsa.debian.org/live-team/live-build
I would not recommend to build inside the live-build source code directory.
Also, you did not activate the git version of live-build, but were using the
packaged version.
(Note: you still need 'apt-get install live-build', to ensure that the
dependencies of live-build are installed)
I propose to run these commands as the following steps:
# Create your own build directory
mkdir build_here
cd build_here
# Become root
sudo su
# Activate the git version of live-build (by pointing LIVE_BUILD to the git
work directory)
export LIVE_BUILD=$(pwd)/../live-build
# Build the live image
${LIVE_BUILD}/test/rebuild.sh --configuration lomiri --debian-version testing
Yesterday I was able to build a live image for lomiri using sid.
As I wrote in
https://salsa.debian.org/live-team/live-build/-/merge_requests/466:
Currently forky (testing) has issues with the Debian-installer, which will get
resolved when kernel 6.19 lands in forky [1].
Please build with sid for the moment, or you can accept that the d-i from GRUB
will not work, by additionally providing `--installer-origin archive` to
rebuild.sh.
With kind regards,
