Todo list. Please add things, we can think about prioritising later.

Web and Documentation

• Set up scheduled builds of live-manual, particularly the html version.

  • After every git commit, the live-manual is updated on https://live-team.pages.debian.net/live-manual/html/live-manual/index.en.html

  • Open: regularly publish the Debian packages and include in devel-manuals (807954)

live-wrapper

• live-wrapper is no longer present in Bookworm and later (due to Python2)

live-build

• Bug triaging: https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/pkgreport.cgi?pkg=live-build;dist=unstable

• Build a picture of where development currently stands.

  • live-build is used to generate the live images for Bookworm

  • The generated images are reproducible, when using test/rebuild.sh (see https://wiki.debian.org/ReproducibleInstalls/LiveImages)

  • The images are generated regularly by Jenkins and live-setup and tested for functionality on openQA
• Enable rebuild.sh to set the volume ID of the ISO image to match the preference from live-setup
• Enable rebuild.sh to set the content of .disk/info to match how live-wrapper wrote that file
• Enable rebuild.sh to name the ISO file directly, which would enable zsync
• Trim the list of included non-free-firmware packages similar to the debian-installer
• Enable/Offer more localisation options in GRUB
• Test the images that are generated by live-setup on openQA (in addition to the images generated by Jenkins)

• Investigate whether eatmydata (or apparently the more modern the dpkg option force-unsafeio will speed up building the images

live-config

• Bug triaging: https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/pkgreport.cgi?pkg=live-config;dist=unstable

live-boot

Designated contact: evgeni

• Bug triaging: https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/pkgreport.cgi?pkg=live-boot;dist=unstable

live-manual

• Bug triaging: https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/pkgreport.cgi?pkg=live-manual;dist=unstable

• Add History section.

• Update URLs & project related instructions. -- ?RolandClobus 2019-04-07 08:00:00: I'm working on fixing the URLs

• Try not to break translations in the process.

• Every git commit will update https://live-team.pages.debian.net/live-manual/

Web live images builder

• Host a replacement for the former web live images builder. (807957)

Automated testing

• Currently tests are on https://openqa.debian.net/group_overview/14

• Add the images generated by live-setup to openQA
• Test an installation scenario that requires LUKS
• Test an installation scenario with pre-installed Windows 10/11
• Test whether the installed programs will start for desktops other than Gnome and KDE
• Extend the list of tested programs with all programs that are present on the live image
