[16:03] <GrueMaster> cjwatson: (or someone equally knowledgeable in oem-config), is there a way to preseed oem-config for automation testing?  I tried using the same preseed I use for netinstall, but it didn't work.  The system had the user info filled in, but prompted me still for each line.
[16:05] <ogra_> GrueMaster, iirc ubiquity needs some special switch for that to run fully automated, i guess thats true for oem-config as well
[16:06] <GrueMaster> ogra_: Needless to say, your preseed mod didn't work.
[16:07] <ogra_> file a bug please ... jasper.log appreciated

[16:19] <cjwatson> GrueMaster: I have a suspicion that the user is special because it always differs from the one set in ubiquity
[16:20] <cjwatson> there are definitely some manual hacks around that in oem-config, and I think I've generally said when asked that oem-config preseeding is best-effort at beest
[16:20] <cjwatson> *best
[16:22] <GrueMaster> So essentially this is sounding like a lost cause.

[16:23] <cjwatson> GrueMaster: given that I have no time to work on it for at least a couple of months, the best I can say is "sorry" unless you can find somebody to fix it ...
[16:24] <GrueMaster> Any other ideas for doing automated image smoke testing?  With all the images we have for armel, I can't do all of them manually daily.

[16:26] <ogra_> GrueMaster, well, with the plan to have oem-config executable in a chroot to be able to run it inside of live-build (as rootstock replacement) either infinity or me will look into that
[16:26] <ogra_> that should help your case as well
[16:26] <ogra_> its just not high prio for either of us

[16:57] <GrueMaster> cjwatson: Is there a way to tell oem-config-debconf to not go into a curses mode?  If that were possible, I could at least do something via serial-console & expect.
[17:00] <cjwatson> no
[17:00] <cjwatson> well, you might try DEBIAN_FRONTEND=readline perhaps
[17:01] <cjwatson> I suppose you could even try DEBIAN_FRONTEND=noninteractive and see if that helps
[17:07] <GrueMaster> I'll give those a try.

[17:33] <GrueMaster> LOL
[17:35] <GrueMaster> Oops, wrong channel.
[18:28] <GrueMaster> cjwatson: None of the DEBIAN_FRONTEND=[text readline noninteractive] settings has any effect.  oem-config still comes up with a txt-gui through serial console.
