An update that has four recommended fixes can now be
installed.
Description:
This update provides KIWI v5.05.93, which brings fixes and enhancements:
- Don't strip curl alternative binaries from initrd: The last update of
curl in SLE11 introduced /usr/bin/curl as a symbolic link. The real
binary is /usr/bin/curl.openssl0 or /usr/bin/curl.openssl1. This needs
to be taken into account when striping down the initrd by kiwi.
(bsc#1004654)
- Add missing failsafe entry to elilo.conf: For SLE11 EFI support the
elilo wrapper is used, in order to allow elilo to create a grub.cfg with
a failsafe entry the elilo template config must provide an image section
for it. (bsc#993792)
- bootImage: Don't copy initial ram disk content to /run/initramfs: We
should avoid copying the initial ram disk content to a tmpfs filesystem,
especially
on low memory systems. (bsc#963276)
- Prefer switch_root over pivot_root. (bsc#963276)
- Fixed partition table label for ec2 images: If firmware="ec2" is
requested kiwi implicitly set the partition table label to GPT. This
leads to a failing boot in EC2.
- Prefer packages by priority of repositories, not by architectures.
