Bug #9292
Drop custom syslinux package with patches for Chromebooks
100%
Description
In feature/jessie, we’re currently shipping 3:6.03+dfsg-5tails1. The patch we’ve added are now part of 3:6.03+dfsg-6 in sid. It’s probably not worth changing how we do it for Wheezy, but we should have the updated syslinux in jessie-backports and then install it from there.

Note that this may have some implications on our build setup and documentation, that now instructs to fetch our custom syslinux-utils.
#2 Updated by intrigeri 2015-09-14 01:13:13
- Status changed from Confirmed to In Progress
#3 Updated by intrigeri 2015-11-09 03:01:25
The patches we want are in Jessie now: syslinux (3:6.03+dfsg-5+deb8u1)
#4 Updated by intrigeri 2015-11-09 03:04:17
We had:
feature-jessie|main|amd64: syslinux 3:6.03+dfsg-5+deb8u1
feature-jessie|main|i386: syslinux 3:6.03+dfsg-5+deb8u1
feature-jessie|main|source: syslinux 3:6.03+dfsg-5+deb8u1and
builder-jessie|main|amd64: syslinux 3:6.03+dfsg-5tails1
builder-jessie|main|i386: syslinux 3:6.03+dfsg-5tails1
builder-jessie|main|source: syslinux 3:6.03+dfsg-5tails1… and I just removed them.

We still build on Wheezy (that hasn’t syslinux 6.x so we still need our custom package anyway), so the only part of the build process that’s affected is the branch for Bug #9262, where I pushed commit:a6bab2b to take these changes into account. I think we’re now done then.
