The dib-run-parts element was copying our internal version of dib-run-parts into /usr/local/bin to be used running scripts inside the target chroot. However, it never cleaned up after itself. This means all images were left with an unmanaged local install of dib-run-parts. This copies dib-run-parts into the hooks directory of the chroot and runs it from there. It is cleaned up automatically on the exit path. The dib-run-parts element is no longer required and it has been removed from all dependencies. It is left with a deprecation notice in the README. For compatability we convert it to simply install dib-utils. Codesearch shows no users depending on this unintentional implicit install. Note os-refresh-config depends on dib-utils and thus will have an explicitly installed version. Partial-Bug: #1673144 Change-Id: Ia2e96c00a4246c04beb96c17f83b8aefb69219ca
dib-run-parts
Warning
This element is deprecated and is left only for compatability. Please read the notes.
This element install the dib-utils
package to provide
dib-run-parts
.
Previously this element was a part of most base images and copied the
internal version of dib-run-parts
to
/usr/local/bin
during the build. Due to a (longstanding)
oversight this was never removed and stayed in the final image. The
image build process now uses a private copy of
dib-run-parts
during the build, so this element has become
deprecated.
For compatability this element simply installs the
dib-utils
package, which will provide
dib-run-parts
. However, this is probably better expressed
as a dependency in individual elements.
