This is lipck - the "linux install party customization kit". This package of scripts is intended for remastering Ubuntu based distributions. This collection of scripts was created by members of the Open-Source working group of the Fachschaft 1/1 Mathematik, Physik, Informatik of the RWTH Aachen University for remastering images for their Linux Install Parties. Existing solutions such as UCK could not do some things we wanted to do like updating the initramfs kernel, saving space by deduplicating files between multiple architectures (e.g. x86,x64). We release this collection of scripts in hope that they will be useful for someone else as well. This project is licensed under the terms of the GPLv3 license which you can find in the COPYING file.

Some targets require the image partition to be mounted. Although, it is easy to detect this (and mount the partition) by depending on the phony target image_mount_if, make is unable to calculate the dependencies correctly. The reason is that some dependencies are located on the partition (which is not mounted when scanning for dependencies). Hence, make will rebuild all targets (after it mounted the partition) regardless of the state of these files. To solve this issue we introduce ensure_mount and call it on phony targets invoked by the user. The actual target will be converted and serve as wrapper which mounts the partition and then invokes the actual target renamed to <name>__ignore_mount.
