Attached is a patch to customize the build_dir, yum cachedir and yum
installroot.
build dir and cachedir make sense to me[1], but what's the value in
setting install_root explicitly? And as it stands, you're not even
using the value since there are lots of other places where we expect
that the install root is builddir/install_root.
That is why the yum_installroot passed is actually being symlinked from
builddir/install_root. line ~34 in the patch. This allows a yum object
already initialized to keep the installroot yet "install into
builddir/install_root".
But why do you actually need that? The install_root is where the file
system image gets mounted and so if you already have things in a
directory, that's not going to help.
I do not already have things in a directory (well actually, I do, but I
don't care about them being trashed), I have an object pointing to a
directory and I cannot change that without destroying and recreating the
object.
The patch is doing what I need, and afaics is not disruptive to
livecd-creator's way of doing things, right?
Kind regards,
