(Mon, 20 Dec 2021 15:36:03 GMT) (full text, mbox, link).
Package: debian-edu-config
Severity: wishlist
Version: 2.12.14
The recently added script debian-edu-ltsp-install makes a lot of
assumption on the Debian Edu site setup and hard-codes various paths
and such that should be more configurable IMHO.
After having tested various diskless workstation deployments in the
field over the next weeks, I'd like to adjust debian-edu-ltsp-*
scripts and make them more generic and flexible and configurable via
/etc/.
The topic has been discussed last night with Wolfgang Schweer on IRC,
see chat backlog below.

22:35 < sunweaver> ok, last topic...
22:35 < sunweaver> debian-edu-ltsp-install
22:35 < sunweaver> there are several hard-coded assumptions in the
script (e.g. about folder names in /srv/ltsp, etc).
22:35 < schweer> yes
22:36 < sunweaver> I'd like to make this more configurable, possibly
via a conf.d/ directory and run-parts.
22:36 < sunweaver> so, that one can extend the scope of the script.
22:36 < schweer> good
22:36 < sunweaver> is there any reason, why you stuffed all variants
of a chroot (esp. X2Go thin client and DLW) into one script?
22:37 < sunweaver> I wondered if we should actually provide two
different scripts for that.
22:38 < schweer> idea has been to have a self contained script which
local admins could copy to /usr/local/sbin and modify it to their needs
22:38 < sunweaver> ah, ok. I get that. That's actually what I did.
22:38 < schweer> :)
22:38 < sunweaver> maybe we can make the script more generic and
pluggable, so that adaptations can be handled via /etc/debian-edu/...
22:39 < sunweaver> or /etc/ltsp/...
22:39 < schweer> yes, feel free to do so
22:39 < sunweaver> whereever, but somewhere in /etc instead of in the script.
22:39 < sunweaver> ok, thanks.
22:39 < sunweaver> not sure how much of all the above I will be able
to work on the coming days, let's see.
22:39 < sunweaver> deployment at the customer site must come first,
but that's a nice test case.
22:40 < schweer> sure :)

I managed to grab hold of Vagrant _and_ Alkis simultaneous on IRC and
we discussed the ltsp.img problem (always being created from the host
system and not from chroot systems).
That is, please check out our IRC backlog of tonight's discussion, it
contains valuable information on how to deploy ltsp-chroot.conf files
into the various chroots and still have a central /etc/ltsp/ltsp.conf
file.
