Install notification of Additional Software is not handling target release
In my live-additional-software.conf I have ikiwiki/sid
.
The target version (sid
) is passed correctly to apt install
and
ikiwiki
from sid is being installed.
But I also get a notification asking me whether I want to install it every time. See screenshot in attachment.
So it seems to me that the APT hook of Additional Software doesn’t handle well target releases.
In the logs I have:
Aug 20 07:54:18 amnesia tails-additiona[4882]: [INFO] New packages manually installed: {'ikiwiki'}
- It should at least respect target releases when entered manually in
live-additional-software.conf. It doesn’t make sense to have two
different versions of the same package installed. So, in my case for
example, the APT hook should detect that I already have
ikiwiki
in my live-additional-software.conf though it’s calledikiwiki/sid
.
- Ideally, it should process
ikiwiki/sid
as being manually installed and not onlyikiwiki
so it can add the target version tolive-additional-software.conf
.
