Here's the relevant bit of what I said in that IRC log: <cjwatson> smoser: That said, cloud-image looks substantively duplicated from server <cjwatson> smoser: So it does look as though that STRUCTURE change might be a mistake <cjwatson> smoser: Either that, or there's a load of stuff in cloud-image that should now be deleted because it's already in server <cjwatson> smoser: Either way, you should indeed make the image build process line up with the seed structure <cjwatson> smoser: And consider the future question of whether you might ever want something in the default server install but *not* in cloud images So what I told you was that you need to either: * have cloud-image inherit from server in STRUCTURE and not duplicate most of its contents *or*: * have cloud-image not inherit from server in STRUCTURE and duplicate most of its contents but not somewhere in between. You picked the latter option, which is fine by me. I think memtest86+ is a great example of something that we might want in the default server install but not in cloud images; so my favoured option here would be simply to move memtest86+ to the desktop-common and server seeds, which I believe will cause it to vanish from the cloud images as things are currently configured. And, after all, there are already other examples of packages that are in server and that make sense there, but that wouldn't make sense in cloud images: for example, ethtool. -- Colin Watson [<a href="mailto:cjwatson@ubuntu.com">cjwatson@ubuntu.com</a>] -- ubuntu-devel mailing list <a href="mailto:ubuntu-devel@lists.ubuntu.com">ubuntu-devel@lists.ubuntu.com</a> Modify settings or unsubscribe at: <a href="https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-devel" target="_blank">https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-devel</a> </blockquote></div> </div>
