| CarlFK | why does $(debconf-get... get expanded on "d-i preseed/late_command string" but not "d-i apt-setup/local0/repository string" ? | 15:54 |
|---|---|---|
| CarlFK | d-i preseed/late_command string cd /target/tmp && wget http://$url/lc/late.sh && chmod u+x late.sh && chroot /target /tmp/late.sh $(debconf-get mirror/suite) $(debconf-get passwd/username) | 15:54 |
| CarlFK | d-i apt-setup/local0/repository string http://ppa.launchpad.net/timvideos/ppa/fpga-support $(debconf-get mirror/suite) main | 15:54 |
| xnox | it's all static | 15:55 |
| CarlFK | er... thinking more, I think I can imagine why, and that's good enough | 15:55 |
| xnox | it just happens that late_command spawns a shell to process the string that comes after it | 15:55 |
| CarlFK | yeah. that' what I started to realize | 15:56 |
| CarlFK | boo. | 15:56 |
| xnox | hence command =) | 15:56 |
| xnox | it's not a turing complete templating language =) | 15:56 |
| CarlFK | for years I have just created a new dir for each release, copied the files, update the release names... | 15:57 |
| CarlFK | anything better? | 15:57 |
