I had tried this approach, to add /etc/dhcp/dhclient-enter-hooks.d/resolved to excludefiles, however it didn't work. As far as I know, this hook is included in the base image and according to [1], the current implementation does not apply excludefiles to the base image.

Move the removal of the files which don't exist or cannot be read, doing it after the filtering with excludefiles and hostfiles files. This avoid stat'ing files which will be excluded later anyway, hence reducing the I/O during a supermin build phase. --- src/build.ml | 32 ++++++++++++++++---------------- 1 file changed, 16 insertions(+), 16 deletions(-) diff --git a/src/build.ml b/src/build.ml index b...

Workaround for Ubuntu which uses this script to try to start a systemd service. That won't work because systemd is not used inside the appliance.

This is a "merge" of two previous series: https://www.redhat.com/archives/libguestfs/2018-December/msg00015.html https://www.redhat.com/archives/libguestfs/2018-December/msg00020.html The goal is to handle better situations like: - empty file in the appliance directory - no config files available in the packages to include in an appliance Compared to the two series, the changes are: -
