Re: New install of Live Build on Buster E: debootstrap - command not found

2018-11-18 Thread Michael .
Thank you eznix. Today is the 1st day since my last message I have had
an opportunity to look at this and it now works. I very much
appreciate your help.

Re: New install of Live Build on Buster E: debootstrap - command not found

2018-11-12 Thread eznix
I too have experienced this problem. For me, the $PATH was the cause. When
I su in Buster, my $PATH does not contain /sbin and /usr/sbin. debootstrap
is in /usr/sbin/ and hence could not be found when running live-build when
su'ing in the terminal. It worked perfectly when I exported /usr/sbin and
/sbin into my $PATH. Live-build also worked perfectly when I su -l in the
terminal. Hope this helps. It does not appear to be a live-build problem,
but a $PATH problem.

2018-11-08 Thread Ginger_M
live-build for buster is not complete.
Missing item for buster on path /usr/share/live/build/data/debian-cd/
There are items for squeeze, jessie, stretch, sid, but not for buster.

 Hi Ginger_M
 Thanks for your reply. I'm a little
 lost as to what doing this will
 achieve, could you explain how this
 will fix my problem?
 Cheers.

Are you sure you've got debootstrap installed? Can you run it manually?

Ok I thought I'd go through the process again, without reinstalling
the OS itself, and this is the outcome. Everything done via command
line instead of creating the folders via the file manager.

Totally new folders, totally new config created by Live Build itself.
My system is Buster but Live Build is reverting to Stretch. I believe
this is what is causing the problem.

Re: New install of Live Build on Buster E: debootstrap - command not found

2018-11-05 Thread Michael .
Thank you for your reply Luca, now I know it should be working.
As I said in my original message it was a totally new install and
everything was new. I purged the system of live-* packages and
reinstalled them only to have the problem again. I have done the same
thing this morning and still get the same issue. I will continue to
work on it now I know it should be working and when I find what the
issue is I will report back.
Cheers.
Michael.

Hi everyone
Usually I think when there is no reply to a question people don't know
the answer and I am sure this is probably the case here but this is a
crippling issue for me. It has literally stopped me dead in my tracks.
I don't really want to have to go back to Stretch if I can help it. If
anyone is using an up to date Buster (current testing) system to use
Live Build successfully please let me know otherwise I'll assume Live
Build isn't suitable for Buster and I will revert back to Stretch.
Cheers.
Michael.

As already mentioned this is a new install so there is nothing in it
(so you can ignore the i386 folder name as this is just a test run). I
have purged both live build, and its associated packages and
deboostrap and installed them again and I still get this same output.
So my questions are
1. Is live build not ready for use on Buster yet? (because it creates
this output "P: Updating config tree for a debian/stretch/amd64
system"
2. Is there a clash with Live-build and debootstrap somewhere making
live-build not "see" debootstrap even though it is installed?

>From memory live-build used to detect the version it was installed on
and build an iso based on that unless it had been told to do something
different in the auto/config file. This one is reverting back to
stretch even though it is installed on a buster system.

Cheers.
Michael.
