Status of Debian Edu "Stretch"

Development started end of March.

(LTSP chroot installation will fail atm.)

Issues needing attention:

  • mirror redirector: http.debian.net -> httpredir.debian.org

  • default browser: iceweasel -> firefox(-esr)

  • squid renaming: squid3 -> squid

  • new samba version: configuration changes
  • autofs: disabling on main server fails, maybe use 'systemctl disable autofs' instead (cf)
  • d-e-c/032-edu-pkgs: non-existing packages readahead and readahead-fedora should be dropped from purge list to enable LTSP chroot installation.
  • LTSP generates squashfs image file automatically, this takes ages and needs a lot of disk space. A file like ../ltsp-build-client/Debian-custom/001-disable-squashfs-image containing one line: SQUASHFS_IMAGE="False" will prevent it.
  • display manager: kdm is gone; after a default combi server installation sddm (w/ MATE as default session) shows up but doesn't allow login (no username field).
  • network interfaces: eth0 -> enp0s3, eth1 -> enp0s8

  • sddm: by default, all users (icons) are shown (after fixing network and autofs).
