[RFE] Neale, add the possibility to add extra packages

[gustavo panizzo]

Hello

I would like to request the possibility to add extra packages at image build time, ideally I would like to pass an extra var to build-neale.remote with the extra packages I want on the image, Also a second var requesting to enable non-free repos

As you might guesses I want to rebuild images with support for wireless card, which firmware is non-free.

thanks!

PD: i know i can manually rebuild the image but i'd like to automate it using neale

non-free i can do it using NEALE_DEBIAN_INIT_SECTIONS :)

further looking at the source for build-neale.remote
i found this

chroot "$FINNIX_SOURCE" /tmp/finnix-chroot-dev apt-get --yes --allow-unauthenticated --purge install sysvinit-core

and NEALE_FINNIX_MIRROR="http://archive.finnix.org/finnix"

not cool

you should download, validate and apt-key add this file (http://archive.finnix.org/finnix/project/finnix-keyring.gpg) before apt-get

do you keep neale source on any git repo i can clone? thanks

Sorry for the delay; I didn't realize bugs were being submitted here. Nonetheless, thank you for your report! For more details on recent developments, please see https://blog.finnix.org/2020/05/19/behind-the-scenes-of-finnix-120/ .

Closing, as Finnix 120 no longer supports remastering (see above for how you can create a custom debian-live image).
