Changelog

Version: 1.376 2016-04-20 19:06:48 UTC

  casper (1.376) xenial; urgency=medium

  * scripts/casper-bottom/13swap: Don't add detected swap partitions to the
    live system's fstab, just swapon it. This avoids creating *.swap units for
    those which automatically trigger whenever partman re-creates swap
    partitions, as this races with partman's own swapon (while it's
    indistinguishable from a hotplug/early boot event in systemd). By
    disabling the fstab entries we disable that automatic start of swap
    partitions, as a relatively unintrusive bandaid for the final release.
    (LP: #1552539)
  * hooks/casper: Copy swapon into the casper initrd for the above.

Version: 1.375 2016-04-19 18:06:55 UTC

  casper (1.375) xenial; urgency=medium

  * scripts/casper-bottom/16disable_gpt_auto_mount: Disable systemd's GPT auto
    generator. We don't want this on a live system that is supposed to not
    touch your hard disk by default, and particularly we don't want to
    automatically enable discovered swap partitions. (LP: #1552539)
  * debian/control: Drop Vcs-Bzr:, which does not exist any more.

  * scripts/casper-bottom/25adduser:
    - Inject a systemd unit that will call passwd -d to ensure that the
      AccountsService properties (particulary PasswordMode) are correctly
      set for the live session user. This will be ignored on persistent
      USB's (LP: #1561302)
