Red Hat Bugzilla – Bug 546909
The live base ks tries to copy a nonexistant file into the image (readme-live-image-en_US.txt)
Last modified: 2010-06-03 01:06:01 EDT
Description of problem: When running livecd-creator on a kickstart file that uses fedora-live-base.ks you get a nonfatal error message during the build: cp: cannot stat `/spare/tmp/imgcreate-AWLM8Y/install_root/usr/share/doc/HTML/readme-live-image/en_US/readme-live-image-en_US.txt': No such file or directory This happens when running the following command in the %post section of fedora-live-base.ks: cp $INSTALL_ROOT/usr/share/doc/HTML/readme-live-image/en_US/readme-live-image-en_US.txt $LIVE_ROOT/README I was not able to figure out if this file is still included in the distro or where to find it if it is. The /usr/share/doc/HTML/ directory is layed out differently than when that command was added. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): fedora-kickstarts-0.12.1-1.fc12.noarch How reproducible: Steps to Reproduce: 1. 2. 3. Actual results: Expected results: Additional info:
I asked for help on the Docs list since they still seem to be working on the upstream version of this. http://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/docs/2010-June/012346.html
The docs team said the file was no longer packaged. It was felt that the documentation wasn't very valuable after you had a live image in your hands. I changed the master branch to not try to copy this file.
