Thanks a lot for the bugfixes. Can´t wait to make some custom ISOs.
Maybe there is a new bug in. I tried german release lxde from 23.12.2016. I made a chromium xzm module and put it in the modules folder.
Module will be loaded on bootup but chromium does not show up in the menu. If i use arch menu button - run and type "chromium" it starts normally.

Also found a fix for the dhcpcd issue. If someone wants to keep his older system this should do the trick.
http://www10.zippyshare.com/v/zUdUnUFg/file.html
Just put it in the modules folder and enjoy the magic. Ultra-fast bootup. Yeah!

@fred08155
1. chromium issue (=== number 2 in [issues list] ===)
"chromium does not show up in the menu",
this occurs on the reason of the lack "/usr/share/applications/chromium.desktop" in the original arch package chromium-55.0.2883.87-x86_64-1.

(1) On the case that you use chromium-55.0.2883.87-x86_64-1.xzm directly,
you have to prepare the "chromium.desktop" as following steps.

Code: Select all

% su
# cp /usr/local/share/mkapl/lib/packages/pkgs.chromium/pkg.z.chromium/chromium-patch/usr/lib/chromium/chromium.sh /usr/bin/
# cp /usr/local/share/mkapl/lib/packages/pkgs.chromium/pkg.z.chromium/chromium-patch/usr/share/applications/chromium.desktop /usr/share/applications/

(2) You can get the chromium module via prepared packages.
GUI menu:
archSPM Command--->mkapl--->chromium
This output chromium.xzm will include chromium.desktop.

2. dhcpcd issue (=== number 7 in [issues list] ===)
Thank you very much for your help.
It is very helpful for me.
I have a poor skill about network.

I have downloaded your module.
I will study.


Thanks.

[fred08155]

OK, so it´s a fault of the sources missing a file with chromium. Good to know.
I was curious what the command mkapl is good for. What else is supported to make with this command? Is there a documentation about it somewhere? Is it just a dropdown menu or some checkboxes to select? Will test this soon.

The issue and fix for systemd (dhcpcd start job) is described here.
https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=213363
I just copied the text and made a xzm module out of it. I don´t have the slightest clue how that works.

@fred08155

1. "mkapl" document
Excuse me, lack of preparing document.
There is a only simple memo in the top article of this thread.
http://forum.porteus.org/viewtopic.php? ... 997#p36687

Now, I added following sentences to there.
-----------------
NOTE:
Building package by "mkapl" can be alternative by "archSPM".

"mkapl" advantages are
1). no need to research packages that construct target module.
2). merging dependency libraries on only one pass.
Because it has the information of packages that include needed libraries and prepares the packages before searching & merging dependency libraries.
3). something to need modifies are prepared in "mkapl".
4). all elements are gathered to one module.
5). output module can be used in all desktops.
-----------------

2. "dhcpcd start job" issue
Thank you very much for your help.
At next update of "ISO builder", it will be included.


Thanks.


P.S.
Now I am building kernel v3.18.46 & 4.1.46.
After that, the update of "ISO builder" will be begun.

But by replacing libmount.so* of libutil-linux (2.29-2) with ones of libutil-linux (2.28.2-2),
it will be fixed.
