Changes:
- Upgraded base distribution to Debian 11.1/Bullseye.
- caching proxy:
- Switch from Polipo (only cached http and is no longer available in
Debian) to Squid. Squid is configured as a caching http/https proxy.
Using 'squid-openssl' package, it is configured to act as a MITM (man in
the middle) caching proxy - closes #1560.
- fab:
- Port code to python3 and major code refactoring.
- Use new 'turnkey-chroot' library for use in 'fab-chroot'.
- Use xorriso (instead of genisoimage) for generating ISO. This provides
UEFI boot support (note this only supports booting the ISO via UEFI;
additional work in di-live required to complete UEFI install support).
Part of #1435.
NOTE: The UEFI support started for v17.0 di-live and ISO builds has been
(temporarily) rolled back and won't be implmented in v17.0.
- pool:
- Port code to python3 and major code refactoring. Closes #1272.
- (Still not pre-installed by default).
- bootstrap:
- Include 'ca-certificates' package (to support https apt repos via squid
https proxy).
- corestrap:
- Support the option of using a "corestrap", rather than a minimalist
bootstrap. A corestrap is a bootstrap, but with all core packages
(except the kernel) pre-installed. It is larger than the bootstrap, but
speeds up builds significantly.
- Note: Please refer to turnkey-core's 17.0 changelog for changes common to
all appliances. Here we only describe changes specific to this appliance.

Changes:

Changes:
- No longer include pool, chanko and friends by default. tkldev-chanko-setup
script has been tweaked and some config setup has been moved to package
postinst scripts.
TODO: more work is still required to make it possible for users to easily
build packages. Plus the buildroot repo needs update.
- fab:
- major changes to way that the bootstrap is built. Now leverages Debian's
debootstrap directly (bootstrap components removed from fab, remaining
changes in turnkey/bootstrap repo).
- buildtasks:
- significant refactoring, including inclusion of bt-bootstrap script to
build bootstrap if relevant bootstrap not currently available.
- updates to most bt- scripts for Buster.
- refactoring of bin/signiture-verify to support forcing check of hashfile
GPG signing via '--force-gpg' switch (default behaviour remains unsigned
files just giving warning).
- tkldev-setup:
- refactor to give more meaningful output.
- change order of repo cloning (now 1st) & bootstrap download (now 2nd).
- leverage buildtasks/config/common.cfg (fallback to config.example if not
setup) to set relevant GPG key ID (BT_GPGKEY).
- leverage buildtasks/bin/signiture-verify script to check downloaded
bootstrap file.
- Docs:
- additional development docs now included in build code repo (none
included in built appliance by default; yet).
- many docs rewritten and/or improved.
- many docs still outdated and/or in need of improvement. :(
- Note: Please refer to turnkey-core's changelog for changes common to all
appliances. Here we only describe changes specific to this appliance.
