Hi,
uploaded, finally :)
Now, we'll have to decide what version we want to run, and which
repository we want to fetch it from.
quidame, once bilibop enters testing, have you any plans to maintain
it in wheezy-backports? (No need to upload every single new release in
there: ideally, for Tails, one would upload to backports only versions
that bring important fixes, and that have proven to be robust for
a while.)
Description:
bilibop - run Debian GNU/Linux from external media - metapackage
bilibop-common - shell functions for bilibop scripts
bilibop-lockfs - lock filesystems and write changes into RAM
bilibop-rules - device management rules for OS running from external media
bilibop-udev - minimal udev rule for Debian GNU/Linux running from external medi
Changes:
bilibop (0.4.16) unstable; urgency=low
.
* bilibop-rules: move db_reset and db_fset commands from config to postinst
script; this should improve the behavior of the scripts during package
upgrade if a custom rules file has been built manually. Add comments.
* debian/substvars: remove trailing ${Newline} in the "Description"
variable. It had been added to work around bug #659814 (dpkg-dev),
which has been recently fixed.
.
bilibop (0.4.15) unstable; urgency=low
.
* bilibop-rules: modify bilibop-rules.bilibop.udev to avoid direct access
(with blkid -p) to suspended dm devices; then create the symlink (as
mapper/dm_name) earlier; update bilibop_rules_generator for consistency.
.
bilibop (0.4.14) unstable; urgency=low
.
* bilibop-common: fix spelling errors in manpages.
* bilibop-rules:
- Modify postrm script: fix an error about udev tags directory path.
- Include missing 'rlvm' sample script in the package.
- Modify 'rlvm' sample (rely on $SHELL environment variable).
.
bilibop (0.4.13) unstable; urgency=low
.
* bilibop-common: update bilibop.conf(5) manual pages.
.
* bilibop-rules:
- Modify maintainer scripts: fix syntax errors; keep variable names
consistency between scripts; backup GRUB device.map in postinst, and
restore it in postrm (purge); do not create a fake device.map in prerm,
just a broken symlink.
- Add a sample script (in the doc) to ease the use of the
physical_volumes_filter helper script.
- Update README.Debian
- Remove the TODO
.
bilibop (0.4.12) experimental; urgency=low
.
* bilibop-common:
- Modify 'underlying_device_from_aufs()'; take into account that an aufs
branch is not necessarly the mountpoint of a device.
- Update the copyright date of the shell library (common.sh).
- Update main function's dependency tree in common.sh
- Fix a typo in the french bilibop.conf manpage.
- Update README.Debian
.
* bilibop-lockfs:
- In the local-bottom initramfs script, follow
BILIBOP_LOCKFS_NOTIFY_POLICY to display non-error messages in plymouth.
- debian/control: add plymouth in the 'Suggests:' field.
.
* bilibop-rules:
- Modify bilibop_rules_generator to ease the build of rules that can be
applied to dual port devices (especially USB and MMC/MSP/SD).
- Modify sysfs_attrs_rule() in bilibop_rules_generator: replace occurences
of double quotes (") by a question mark (?) in values of attributes (as
" means inch) instead of removing these attributes.
- Modify make_unpersistent_rules and the initramfs script to fix a design
error in the 'unpersistent rules' feature. This mainly affected the cd
rules (symlinks to /dev/sr* were not always created or updated).
- Make the package debconf-configurable: rewrite existing maintscripts;
add bilibop-rules.config and bilibop-rules.templates; add debian/po/
and populate it; modify debian/control and debian/rules.
- Add french translation for debconf.
- Update README.Debian
.
* bilibop-udev:
- Modify postinst script: if the disk hosting the system (or one of its
partitions) still belong to 'floppy' group, then exit with error, unless
a custom rules file exists.
- modify postrm script: be sure /sys/block exists before doing things; use
ERE instead of BRE in grep commands.
- Update README.Debian
.
* debian/control: update Homepage: and Vcs-Git: fields.
* debian/copyright: remove the 'Source: ' field and update copyright dates.
* debian/substvars: replace the strict requirement by something more soft,
as an advice.
.
bilibop (0.4.11) experimental; urgency=low
.
* bilibop-common: modify /lib/bilibop/test to output the value of
BILIBOP_COMMON_BASENAME, unless the -q option is used.
* bilibop-udev:
- Modify the udev rules file to create a symlink with the output of
/lib/bilibop/test.
- Rewrite postinst script to not fail when the package is installed in a
chrooted or debootstraped environment, and explicitly load the udev
rules before triggering uevents.
* bilibop-rules: fix an error (typo) about -x option in the
physical_volumes_filter script.
.
bilibop (0.4.10) experimental; urgency=low
.
* debian/compat: bump to compatibility level 9.
* debian/control: down libnotify-bin from Recommends: to Suggests: for the
bilibop-lockfs binary package.
.
* bilibop-common: modify is_aufs_mountpoint() and physical_hard_disk(): set
some local variables to an empty string to fix shell-dependant behaviours
with the 'local' built-in command.
.
* bilibop-rules:
- Modify helper scripts in /usr/share/bilibop: set -e; reformat syntax
(spaces, neawlines, indents); fix minor errors and cosmetics.
- make_unpersistent_rules: replace the --skip option by the more explicit
--only; remove the confusing --reverse option; allow to always handle
the two files in the same command line.
- bilibop_rules_generator: fix printf errors and output redirection, and
manage minor failures to not abort immediately.
- grub_device_map_manager: add link_device_map() function; do not
automatically and stupidly remove the existing devive map when the
--link option is used; fix typos.
- lsbilibop: add -l option to not rely on BILIBOP udev tags; query the
ID_DRIVE_DETACHABE value.
- Update documentation.
.
* bilibop-udev: add a new udev rule (to create a 'bootdisk' symlink).
.
bilibop (0.4.9) experimental; urgency=low
.
* bilibop-rules: modify debian/bilibop-rules.bilibop-udev and
bilibop_rules_generator to unconditionally set UDISKS_SYSTEM_INTERNAL to 1
for the main drive.
* bilibop-lockfs: add 'activate_bilibop_lv()' in lockfs.sh functions, and
call it from bilibop-lockfs local-bottom initramfs script. This is needed
to be sure all Logical Volumes needed by the system (listed in /etc/fstab
and/or /etc/crypttab) are active at this step.
* Fix typos: replace all occurences of \' by \(aq in manual pages.
.
bilibop (0.4.8) experimental; urgency=low
.
* bilibop-udev: rewrite postinst script.
.
bilibop (0.4.7) experimental; urgency=low
.
* bilibop-udev: fix a bux in the udev rules (a matching rule as
KERNEL=="$result*" is not supported by udev).
* bilibop-common: add /lib/bilibop/test (to be used by new bilibop-udev udev
rule); as the 'proof of concept' /lib/bilibop/disk is no more needed by
bilibop-udev, modify it to output the full path of the disk.
* debian/control: move versioned dependency on initscripts from bilibop-common
to bilibop-lockfs and bilibop-rules.
* Remove debian/source.lintian-overrides (current version of the Debian policy
is now 3.9.4).
.
bilibop (0.4.6) experimental; urgency=low
.
* bilibop-lockfs:
- Add support for plymouth: send a message from local-bottom initramfs
script when bilibop-lockfs is enabled, disabled or has failed.
- Allow to override/blank BILIBOP_LOCKFS_WHITELIST with 'lockfs=all'
boot parameter.
- Update documentation.
.
* bilibop-rules:
- Add a new helper script: physical_volumes_filter, and its shell
functions: pvfilter.sh; the script is used to modify the variables
'obtain_device_list_from_udev' and 'filter' in lvm.conf.
- Rewrite udev rules and bilibop_rules_generator to tag internal drives
and partitions, and restore some dm-* related symlinks in the udev
database (needed by the new script).
- Update documentation.
.
* debian/control: update bilibop-rules extended description.
* Rewrite maintainer scripts.
.
bilibop (0.4.5) experimental; urgency=low
.
* bilibop-lockfs: modify bilibop-lockfs initramfs scripts, lockfs.sh and
lockfs_mount_helper:
- 'noswap' boot parameter overrides BILIBOP_LOCKFS_SWAP_POLICY and set
it to "hard".
- parse /proc/cmdline in a more portable and robust way: take into account
that the last runlevel (0 to 6, S and single) overrides all the previous
ones; allow the general format 'lockfs[=opt1[,opt2[,opt3]]]' with
options 'hard', 'soft', 'force' and an arbitrary string matching a regex
for the size of the tmpfs used for /.
* Update bilibop-lockfs documentation (README.Debian).
* Update bilibop.conf(5) manual page for bilibop-lockfs related variables
that can be overridden from boot commandline.
.
bilibop (0.4.4) experimental; urgency=low
.
* Fix inconsistent variable name in the lockfs_mount_helper script.
* Modify lockfs_mount_helper script: allow devices with 'crypto'
ID_FS_USAGE (instead of only 'filesystem') to be listed in the
BILIBOP_LOCKFS_WHITELIST variable.
* Update bilibop.conf(5) manual pages (en & fr), and fix a translation
error in the french version.
.
bilibop (0.4.3) experimental; urgency=low
.
* bilibop-common:
- Add lib/bilibop/disk (outputs the name of the disk hosting the root
filesystem, or hosting a file, device or directory given as argument);
- Update documentation (README.Debian and bugs.txt).
* bilibop-lockfs:
- Fix error due to invalid lvm.conf settings (read_only_volume_list should
not be set if empty): modify 'bilibop-lockfs' initramfs scripts, and
the functions 'parse_and_modify_fstab()', 'initialize_lvm_conf()',
'blacklist_bilibop_devices()', 'set_readonly_lvm_settings()' and
'unlock_logical_volume()'.
- Improve support for loop devices (take into account that the first field
in fstab can be a regular file instead of a block device): modify
lockfs_mount_helper script and 'parse_and_modify_fstab()' function in
lockfs.sh.
* bilibop-udev: modify udev rules file (now based on lib/bilibop/disk; runs
faster). Add postinst and postrm maintscripts to trigger spurious uevents.
Update README.Debian.
.
* debian/control: change Section of bilibop binary package (from misc to
metapackages); change Depends of the same package (replace dependency on
bilibop-device-policy virtual package by a versioned dependency on
bilibop-rules).
.
bilibop (0.4.2) experimental; urgency=low
.
* Update debian/bilibop-lockfs.dirs
* Update debian/bilibop-lockfs.install
* Add missing call to 'get_udev_root' in the bilibop_disk (bilibop-udev)
script.
.
bilibop (0.4.1) experimental; urgency=low
.
* Modify lockfs.sh:
- add new functions: 'set_readonly_lvm_settings()', to modify
'locking_type', 'metadata_read_only' and 'read_only_volume_list'; and
'unlock_logical_volume()', to not lock (set read-only) whitelisted
Logical Volumes.
- rewrite 'initialize_lvm_conf()' to also initialize 'locking_type',
'metadata_read_only' and 'read_only_volume_list' LVM variables.
- rewrite 'blacklist_bilibop_devices()'.
- modify 'parse_and_modify_fstab()' to use 'unlock_logical_volumes()'.
* bilibop-lockfs:
- modify local-bottom initramfs script (call 'set_readonly_lvm_settings()'
when lockfs policy is 'hard').
- modify initramfs hook to include a list of Logical Volumes in the
initramdisk; this list is used by 'set_readonly_lvm_settings()'.
- new init-top initramfs script, to call 'set_readonly_lvm_settings()'
very early in the boot process, unless the 'nolockfs' parameter is used
in the boot commandline.
* Update documentation (debian/bilibop-lockfs.README.Debian).
* Modify lockfs-notify script: replace 'permanent' by 'persistent' and
'temporary' by 'volatile'.
.
* Modify bilibop.conf(5) manual pages: use the '.SS' tag, and replace \' by
\(aq.
.
* debian/control: update bilibop-lockfs description; since bilibop depends
on bilibop-device-policy, remove 'all' from 'install all other BILIBOP
packages'. For bilibop-udev, replace versioned suggestion on
bilibop-lockfs by unversioned one.
.
bilibop (0.4.0) experimental; urgency=low
.
* Add new binary package: bilibop-udev, as a minimal subset of
bilibop-rules. There is a conflict between bilibop-udev and bilibop-rules,
and each of them provides the 'bilibop-device-policy' virtual package.
* bilibop-lockfs: the mount_fallback() function being the only one in
lockfs.sh that can be used by the lockfs_mount_helper script, move it from
lockfs.sh to lockfs_mount_helper, and source common.sh directly instead of
lockfs.sh from lockfs_mount_helper.
* bilibop-common: update documentation:
- add a reference to bilibop-udev in misc/udev.txt
- update misc/bugs.txt (new bug reported against udisks)
- give additional information about encrypted swap devices (misc/swap.txt)
- add a NOTE about hibernation, and explain how to hide the 'hibernate'
button of xfce4-session-logout (misc/swap.txt)
- give more info about the LVM 'filter' settings and how to use it from OS
on external media (misc/lvm2.txt)
- give detailed info on how to build and use non-default keymap in GRUB
(misc/grub2.txt)
.
* debian/changelog: fix a debchangelog syntax error in the Initial Release
entry (add the missing colon after 'Closes').
* debian/control: update dependency relationships and description of the
binary packages:
- bilibop: modify the Depends: field; now bilibop depends on the virtual
package 'bilibop-device-policy' instead of 'bilibop-rules (= version)'.
- bilibop-common: modify the Suggests: field; now suggests the virtual
package 'bilibop-device-policy' as above and remove (= version) for
bilibop-lockfs.
- bilibop-lockfs: modify the Recommends: and Suggests: fields in the same
manner. Move 'aufs-tools' and 'libnotify-bin' from Suggests: to
Recommends: field. Add some details in the long description.
- bilibop-rules: add 'grub-common' and 'lvm2' in Recommends: and move
'udisks' from Suggests: to Recommends: field. Update short description.
Add some details in the long description.
* Update debian/bilibop-rules.dirs (remove unneeded initramfs-tools/hooks
directory).
.
bilibop (0.3.6) experimental; urgency=low
.
* bilibop-common: modify common.sh for portability:
- device_node_from_major_minor(): replace local path= by dev= (path is
an environment variable of zsh, as PATH, but with spaces as separators
instead of colons).
- underlying_device_from_aufs(): escape equal sign (\=) in a variable
subtitution (for compatibility with zsh again).
* bilibop-common: modify common.sh to be sure DEBUG is 'true' or 'false'.
* bilibop-common: modify physical_hard_disk(). Base the loop on /sys/block/*
instead of the content of /proc/partitions. Runs a little bit faster.
* bilibop-common: Add support for aufs module parameter 'brs=0'; add
aufs_dirs_if_brs0() function, and modify aufs_readonly_branch(),
aufs_writable_branch() and aufs_dirs() to use the new one.
* bilibop-common: modify _drivemap_volume_size() to use 10 instead of 8 as a
limit to display sizes in MB).
* bilibop-common: add FSF address in the licence header of common.sh
.
* bilibop-lockfs: use device_nodes() in blacklist_bilibop_devices().
* bilibop-rules: fix typo in lsbilibop(8) french manual page.
.
* Update documentation for bilibop-common (README.Debian, bugs.txt and
lvm2.txt), bilibop-lockfs (README.Debian) and bilibop-rules
(README.Debian).
.
* debian/control: replace debhelper (>= 9.0.0) by debhelper (>= 9) in the
Build-Depends: field. Add "GNU/Linux" in the short description of the
bilibop metapackage.
* debian/substvars: replace 'Debian' by 'Debian GNU/Linux'; add 'eSATA' in
the list of external media.
.
bilibop (0.3.5) experimental; urgency=low
.
* Fix typos in manpages and add french translations of the manpages.
.
* bilibop-rules:
Remove loopback udev rules file and modify bilibop rules file and
bilibop_rules_generator to not depend on the BACKING_FILE variable.
.
* bilibop-rules:
Rewrite lsbilibop to allow to trigger uevents in a per-action and
per-device basis: split -u option (update) to -a (action=add) and -c
(action=change) options.
Add a short help message in the case BILIBOP udev tag does not exist.
Add the DEVLINKS udev property in the info (-i option) output.
Relative paths, symlinks and wildcards are now supported in the
commandline.
.
* bilibop-rules:
Modify lsbilibop manpage to be consistent with the new lsbilibop script.
.
* bilibop-lockfs:
Be less restrictive in blacklist_bilibop_devices() when building the
'reject' patterns for lvm.conf filter array: only apply on bilibop
Physical Volumes and their symlinks instead of all bilibop block
devices and parent directories of their symlinks.
Modify and rename overwrite_lvm_conf() to initialize_lvm_conf().
Add BILIBOP_PART variable in the initramfs script.
.
* bilibop-common:
Fix drivemap output errors: remove annoying trailing spaces, fix width
issues that occured with the -p option.
Define the PROG variable and replace all occurencies of ${0##*/} by ${PROG}
Fix a missing redirection to stderr when --debug is invoked.
.
* bilibop-common:
add device_nodes() function, which is used now in physical_hard_disk() and
in lsbilibop script. Fix indentations (expand tabs) in common.sh.
.
* bilibop-common:
Add Copyright and Licence as header of lib/bilibop/common.sh, which can be
used standalone.
.
* debian/control: fix typo in bilibop-common description.
* Remove unneeded executable bit of maintainer scripts and file intended to
be installed in /bin and /usr/bin.
* Add debian/source.lintian-overrides to override lintian warning message
W: bilibop source: newer-standards-version 3.9.4 (current is 3.9.3)
.
bilibop (0.3.4) experimental; urgency=low
.
* debian/control: bump Standards-Version to 3.9.4; add dependency on
initscripts (>= 2.88dfs-13.3) for bilibop-common. Replace versioned
dependencies on udev and initramfs-tools by unversioned dependencies;
remove versioned dependency on base-files. Replace Vcs-Browser: field
by Vcs-Git: field.
* lib/bilibop/common.sh: add a test in physical_hard_disk() to avoid
possible failures with some partition schemes. Allow
parent_device_from_dm() to accept a device basename or its absolute path
as argument.
* lib/bilibop/lockfs.sh: allow is_encrypted() to treat devices called by
their UUID or LABEL as well as their filename.
.
bilibop (0.3.3) unstable; urgency=low
.
* debian/control: add Vcs-Browser: field.
.
bilibop (0.3.2) unstable; urgency=low
.
* debian/control: fix indentation errors in bilibop-lockfs description.
* bilibop-rules:
- postinst: fix an error in the 'udev trigger --sysname-match' argument.
- postrm: trigger uevents for block devices owned by the 'disk' group.
- prerm: remove custom 66-bilibop.rules when package is purged.
.
bilibop (0.3.1) unstable; urgency=low
.
* debian/control: in the Suggests: field of bilibop-rules, replace the too
specific 'grub2' by a list of alternatives (grub-coreboot, grub-efi-amd64,
grub-efi-ia32, grub-ieee1275 and grub-pc).
.
* Add a TODO in bilibop-common, bilibop-rules and bilibop-lockfs.
* Include /etc/bilibop/bilibop.conf in the bilibop-common binary package.
* Modify scripts and documentation to take into account that there can be
more than height loopback devices.
.
* bilibop-rules:
- Fix errors on tests in the initramfs script.
- Modify grub_device_map_manager to exit with code 0.
* bilibop-rules.postinst: trigger uevents for block devices.
* bilibop-rules.bilibop.udev and bilibop_rules_generator: import ID_FS_*
properties of dm devices in udev database even if udisks is not installed.
* bilibop_rules_generator: include a new rule for the case the generated
custom rules file is orphaned.
.
bilibop (0.3.0) unstable; urgency=low
.
* debian/control:
- Update Build-depends from debhelper (>= 8.0.0) to debhelper (>= 9.0.0).
- Change some dependencies of binary packages to versioned dependencies:
udev (>= 167), initramfs-tools (>= 0.99). As for base-files (>= 6.4),
this is needed by the use of the /run temporary directory in bilibop
functions or scripts.
.
* bilibop-lockfs: modify the initramfs hook: busybox providing its own
blockdev builtin, don't add /sbin/blockdev in the initramfs if busybox is
added.
* extended_partition(): rewrite to avoid direct access on devices (now
based on udev instead of blkid), move it from lockfs.sh to common.sh
* lockdev_rootdev_tree():
- Rewrite it to avoid direct access on devices.
- Rename it blockdev_root_subtree().
* lockfs_mount_helper:
- When the fstype registered in /etc/fstab is 'crypt', 'crypt_LUKS' or
'crypto_LUKS', set the mounted mapped device as readonly too (and not
only the underlying device) if asked by BILIBOP_LOCKFS_POLICY != soft.
- Use LC_ALL=C before the verbose chmod and chown to not depend on the
locale and simplify the regexp in sed.
* Put the loop used in the initramfs script to parse and modify fstab in the
parse_and_modify_fstab() function in lockfs.sh, and call this function in
the initramfs script.
* Because LVM tools can bypass 'readonly' settings of block devices and
reset them as writable, add new functions in lockfs.sh:
- blacklist_bilibop_devices(): called from the initramfs script.
- overwrite_lvm_conf(): called from the previous one.
They are used to disallow management of bilibop (physical and virtual)
devices by the lvm commands by filtering them in the temporary lvm.conf.
This avoids breakage of bilibop-lockfs 'hard' policy, at least for the
root filesystem and its parent devices.
* Add a new part (3.1.g) in README.Debian to explain what is done, and why.
.
* bilibop-common: add a reference to
http://wiki.debian.org/AdvancedStartupShutdownWithMultilayeredBlockDevices
in the documentation.
* Add misc/bugs.txt and misc/lvm2.txt in the documentation.
* common.sh: remove unneeded command substitution (echo) in the
undelying_device_from_loop() function.
* New available options in usr/bin/drivemap:
- Split --debug to --debug and -x or --set-x
- Add -p or --mountpoint to explicitly ask to display mountpoints.
- Add -w or --width to control the width of the output.
* drivemap.sh: modify _dotline() and _print_line() to include new options.
* drivemap.1: add the new options in the manpage.
* _drivemap_primary_partitions(): rewrite to use extended_partition().
.
* Fix some typos, unclear sentences and language errors in debian/control,
in the documentation and in the comments of scripts and functions.
.
bilibop (0.2) unstable; urgency=low
.
* New OpenPGP key.
* debian/control: change 'Achitecture: all' to 'Architecture: linux-any' for
all binaries.
* debian/control: more precise description of the packages, their purposes
and features. Add a statement about the required kernel version.
* debian/copyright: modify Format field to:
http://www.debian.org/doc/packaging-manuals/copyright-format/1.0/ (Fixes
lintian pedantic message).
* debian/copyright: change copyright date from 2012 to 2011-2012 for all
files except debian/*.
* Clean debian/rules.
* Add debian/substvars.
* bilibop-common: modify functions relative to loop devices and aufs to
improve compatibility with LiveUSB systems.
* bilibop-lockfs: set the primary extended partition as readonly when the
root filesystem is contained into a logical partition that has been set
readonly.
