Where does the bug appear? ------------------------------ - -...at build time while bootstrapping? - -make-live first bootstraps a basic Debian system with cdebootstrap(1) or -debootstrap(8). Depending on both cdebootstrap/debootstrap and the Debian -distribution it is bootstrapping, it runs sucessful or not. If a bug appears -here, check if the error is related to a specific Debian package (most likely), -or if it is related to cdebootstrap/debootstrap itself. - -In both cases, this is not a bug in Debian Live, but rather in Debian itself. We -can not fix this directly. Instead, report such a bug against the cdebootstrap -package, or the failing package. - - -...at build time while installing packages? - -Debian Live installs additional packages from the Debian archive. Depending on -the Debian distribution used and the daily archive state, it can fail. If a bug -appears here, check if the error is also reproducible on a normal system. - -If this is the case, this is not a bug in Debian Live, but rather in Debian -again. Report it against the failing package. - - -...at run time? - -If a package was successfully installed, but fails while actually running the -Live system, this is probably a bug in Debian Live. - - -2. Where to send the bug report? --------------------------------- - -Report error logs of build time errors to live-package and run time errors to -casper in the Debian Bug Tracking System. If you are unsure or need more help -before submitting a bug report, you can always send a message to -<debian-devel-live@lists.alioth.debian.org>. We will help you to figure it out. |
