This makes more sense than with rescue as it's not only hardware
support check then but also actual functionality can be tested.

Looks like MATE is the DE we rather expect/recommend in environments
where PC/SC tends to pop up.

It's rare enough that more complete images could be used,
and it pulls in polkit with mozjs which is terrible here.

Never been a feature request but rather a TODO item,
and image size is what folks seem to be actually
concerned with.

It's pretty small but dbench-data is *huge* (~25 Mb)!

This hefty bunch of packages gets dropped from most of the flavours;
those ones pulling it in explicitly (kde4, kde5, mate, xfce) get rid
of krb5-ticket-watcher as it's now autostarting (which is annoying
if one doesn't really intend to use kerberos auth off a livecd).

Parties looking into integrating non-mainstream starterkits into ALT
domain or whatever are highly probably best served by a custom build
including libreoffice et al. anyways, and those experimenting can
just follow wiki instructions when needed.

Feedback is welcome, of course.

We use grub2 2.00, it's not compatible with new mke2fs
options (namely "64bit" one); disable it for now.

This one has been considered to be in already!

It's no more in sisyphus.

This one has been split from regular rescue following
discussion with Will Glynn; some hefty bits like UEFI
support or an extra squashfs to check the image integrity
aren't needed, so let's just build a slimmer ISO instead.

...instead of (often-crowded) ftp.altlinux.org for updates.

...as drbd83 has been dropped.

These have been removed from sisyphus:

...tiny bits and pieces...

This should have been done before the first DE/WM-specific one!

libgpg-error and libgcrypt20 are apparently needed for current
systemd-tmpfiles which has been tossed into basesystem, alas.

This is needed for a custom autoinstalling image with grub
(as installer-feature-serial-stage3 doesn't support lilo
reliably yet); see bootloader feature's README regarding
the switch but the change is basically a no-op for the
.regular-jeos intermediate target.

These were spotted in mkimage-profiles-desktop's
profiles/pkg/lists/pkcs11, carry over.

A one-liner for syslinux and a simple installer feature
change a lot in this regard!

Added vulkan support

- starterkits-20170312

...as its former base, regular-server, includes Samba DC too now.

...just in case.

The real cause is the current lack of firefox-be;
it's obsoleted but not provided anymore since upstream
ceased to provide the translation.  Will have to be fixed
in browser feature if things stay this way.

This bumps desktop process/files limits quite considerably; see also
http://lists.altlinux.org/pipermail/devel/2017-February/202397.html

...where appropriate.

This one is for tuned(8) indeed but more useful bits
might go in over time.

Small things like chsh(1) are quite useful to those in the know...

- disable git hooks (glebfm@)

This one lacked there recently, todo--.

This one has been used in e2k build testing, let it live.

It's a worthwile alternative to minicom and friends: just

  miniterm.py /dev/ttyUSB1 115200

and voila.
