[14:40] <xnox> how does partman-iscsi ends up part of the installation?
[14:40] <xnox> one manually anna-installs it?
[14:41]  * xnox ponders how to hook up s390-zfcp and thought that it should be similar to e.g. iscsi
[14:59] <cyphermox> nope
[14:59] <cyphermox> gets pulled in if you preseed iscsi things
[15:00] <cyphermox> or maybe always there in some specific cases, I need to check
[15:12] <xnox> i guess one must do anna-install=partman-iscsi or some such?
[15:12] <xnox> but i'm struggling to find docs about it.
[15:20] <cyphermox> no need to anna-install it at all
[15:23] <cyphermox> but I suppose I'm missing a part of the magic anyway, I don't see how it gets pulled in either
[15:46] <cyphermox> cjwatson: could you please enlighten us? ^
[15:46] <cyphermox> I'm wondering if it's not just via Priority
[16:30] <cjwatson> Yes, any udeb that's Priority: standard is automatically marked for installation by anna.
[16:30] <cjwatson> (or above)
[16:32] <cjwatson> For the full rules it's easiest to just read through the body of the larger for loop in anna/anna.c:choose_modules - the log messages make the logic reasonably clear.
[16:50] <xnox> cjwatson, aha. so maybe i should stop pointlessly including some of the s390-* things, and bump priority instead.
[16:50] <xnox> (i take that priority:standard udebs get included on the .iso automagically too...)
[16:52] <cjwatson> xnox: IIRC
[16:53] <xnox> ;-)
[16:53] <xnox> cjwatson, btw, would you like to nominate yourself to Ubuntu Developer Membership Board =)
[16:53] <cjwatson> xnox: No.
[16:53] <cjwatson> Not even a little bit.
[16:53] <xnox> =))))))) ok
[16:54] <xnox> cjwatson, even if i bribe you with 100 portal keys?
[16:54] <xnox> =)
[16:55] <cjwatson> I've been there and done that, don't want to do it again.
[16:55] <cjwatson> I wouldn't be able to give it the time it needs for a proper job anyway.
[16:59] <Laney> It is a highly rewarding experience
[17:04]  * xnox ponders why we include block-modules-${kernel:Version} into d-i initrds.
[17:04] <xnox> on s390x, which cannot install without network.
[17:04] <xnox> or rather, can only install over the network.
[17:12] <cyphermox> xnox: what did you mean by 'including', adding to pkglists in d-i?
[17:13] <xnox> yeah.
[17:13] <cyphermox> ah, yeah
[17:13] <xnox> it makes sense on e.g. hd-media, but makes no sense for netboot only s390x.
[17:13] <cyphermox> well, it depends if you want to make it already available in the initrd or not ;)
[17:13] <cyphermox> right
[17:13] <cyphermox> if it can only netboot, all you really need is enough to get on the network and download the rest
[17:15] <cyphermox> makes me think that I still have an enhancement I want to do to anna for the PPA overlay magic
[17:58] <xnox> like install all from overlay?
[19:44] <cyphermox> well, not really, but use any package newer than the archive from the overlay
[19:45] <cyphermox> I'll deal with this tomorrow
