--- Comment #4 from Jean-Philippe Evrard
(In reply to Alexander Graf from comment #2)
We even have them for x86_64 already: https://build.opensuse.org/package/view_file/openSUSE:Factory:ARM:Live/JeOS/ X11-rootfs.x86_64.kiwi?expand=1
I guess it makes sense to consolidate our images into something more managable for everyone, yes.
I guess for this we should actually start from scratch and just make a new package/.kiwi file which includes all packages necessary to run zypper and is arch-independant. It would also avoid kiwi profiles, which makes it even easier to maintain.
Opinions?
I am new to all of this, so just my two cents: I guess it could be simplified from https://build.opensuse.org/package/view_file/openSUSE:Factory:ARM:Live/JeOS/... . I like the idea of having a minimum base arch-independant and adding layers. It could become technically challenging if there are other extra (distro-specific) packages required for a "minimum bootable image". But all in all, it's a step towards the right direction to avoid the repetitions. It would require rebuilding all the other images, and check for regressions. I am not sure the state of the testing there, and if there are resources to work on it. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
