Summary | 0006438: Several issues with kali livefile builds | ||||
Description | Hi folks, from time to time I am creating a kali livefile DVD for my personal purposes. Downloaded a fresh git clone and build with build.sh as usual for 32-bit and 64-bit. At the moment, there are some issues, who might be interesting for you and maybe easily can be fixed. This si the list so far:
git clone git://gitlab.com/kalilinux/build-scripts/live-build-config.git but this does not work. The protocol is rejected. There is somewhere another entry on the kali site (does notz find any more), which is working: git clone http://gitlab.com/kalilinux/build-scripts/live-build-config.git Please chack and correct this on your website.
It would be nice, if you could check this and maxbe correct in the git or make an information on the website.
General feedback: I am building kali with lxde (32-bit for my EEEPC, 64-bit for my desktop machine) which is slim and fast. Thanks for the great work! best regards Hans | ||||

wicd is unlikely to come back because it depends on a python2 package (pygtk which is no longer maintained upstream) - wicd isn't something we modified for Kali use, so it's not something we can easily bring back since it has been removed from Debian testing - https://tracker.debian.org/pkg/wicd - there are python3 forks of it, e.g. https://github.com/PXke/wicd-reloaded but that isn't packaged anywhere, as far as I know. Since we pull from Debian testing, when it was removed there, it was removed here as well (and the missing dependency means it won't install) Can you provide the full output of the build with sa-compile crashing? kali/kali should be the correct login credentials, the only time it should be different is an actual installation where the user creates their username and password. And you are correct for the git url, it is a holdover from when our repositories were hosted on github. |

Hi, kali/kali does not work, rechecked. Maybe this is a problem in your configuration files of git used by live-build. Would be nice if you could recheck this. Withthe git-problem, maybe you might want to enter a uniique entry on your site, so that it is telling the same correct thing in your documentation.. Just a suggestion. And last but not least, for sa-compile I uploaded my build.log, hope it will be usefull. Thank you very much for your help. |

Setting up sa-compile (3.4.4-1) ... So it looks like the post-install is trying to chmod the directory that doesn't exist because there are no spam assassin rules to convert (I'm just guessing based on the package without looking closer) - this is a Debian package, not one that we modify, so it's probably better to submit an issue to the Debian bug tracker. |

This report has been filed against an old version of Kali. We will be closing this ticket due to inactivity. |
