description |
After much debugging trying to understand why `apt-get autoremove` was not working in a binary hook I realised that all packages installed in a binary hook are marked as manually installed - even the dependencies of packages. This is a bug.
Another side affect of this is that any dependency of a package in the base chroot that is removed in a binary hook is not autoremovable in the binary hook.
It is autoremovable once the image is created and launched though.
This is due to how the `setup_mountpoint` function works (see https://git.launchpad.net/livecd-rootfs/tree/live-build/functions#n123) specifically
```
mount -t tmpfs none "$mountpoint/var/lib/apt"
```
Which means that inside the chroot that the binary hook works on, the `/var/lib/apt` directory is empty... including the `/var/lib/apt/extended_states` file which is used to store whether a package was auto installed or not.
The same goes the other way - any changes to the `/var/lib/apt/extended_states` file inside chroot that the binary hook is changing are not reflected in the final image due to the `teardown_mountpoint` (see https://git.launchpad.net/livecd-rootfs/tree/live-build/functions#n152) not persisting any of those changes.
The end result being.
* If a package is removed in the binary hook then the resulting image will likely have autoremovable packages at first launch
* Any package and their dependencies installed in a binary hook will all be marked as manually installed. |

SRU
====
[ Impact ]
* Packages installed in a binary hook are marked as manually installed - even the dependencies of packages
[ Test Plan ]
* Build test images and remove a package with dependencies.
* Confirm that the dependencies are marked as autoremovable.
* Confirm there are packages marked as auto installed
[ Where problems could occur ]
* Is any dependent packages are not marked as autremovable.
* If no packages are marked as auto installed |
