    Perhaps the most basic customization of a Debian live system is the  selection of packages to be included in the image. This chapter guides you  through the various build-time options to customize <i>live-build</i>' s  installation of packages. The broadest choices influencing which packages  are available to install in the image are the distribution and archive  areas. To ensure decent download speeds, you should choose a nearby  distribution mirror. You can also add your own repositories for backports,  experimental or custom packages, or include packages directly as files. You  can define your own lists of packages to include, use <i>live-build</i>' s  predefined lists, use <tt>tasksel</tt> tasks, or a combination of all  three. Finally, a number of options give some control over apt, or if you  prefer, aptitude, at build time when packages are installed. You may find  these handy if you use a proxy, want to disable installation of recommended  packages to save space, or need to control which versions of packages are  installed via APT pinning, to name a few possibilities.

    The distribution you choose has the broadest impact on which packages are  available to include in your live image. Specify the codename, which  defaults to <tt>wheezy</tt> for the <b>Wheezy</b> version of <i>live-build</i>. Any current  distribution carried in the Debian archive may be specified by its codename  here. (See  <a href="about-manual.html#terms">Terms</a>  for more details.) The <tt>--distribution</tt> option  not only influences the source of packages within the archive, but also  instructs <tt>live-build</tt> to behave as needed to build each supported  distribution. For example, to build against the *unstable* release, <b>Sid</b>,  specify:
  </p>
</div><div class="substance">
  <label class="ocn"><a name="343" href="#343" class="lnkocn">343</a></label>
  <p class="code" id="o343">
    $ lb config --distribution sid<br /><br />
  </p>
</div><div class="substance">
  <label class="ocn"><a name="344" href="#344" class="lnkocn">344</a></label>
  <p class="i0" id="o344">
    Within the distribution archive, archive areas are major divisions of the  archive. In Debian, these are <tt>main</tt>, <tt>contrib</tt> and <tt>non-free</tt>. Only  <tt>main</tt> contains software that is part of the Debian distribution, hence  that is the default. One or more values may be specified, e.g.
  </p>
</div><div class="substance">
  <label class="ocn"><a name="345" href="#345" class="lnkocn">345</a></label>
  <p class="code" id="o345">
    $ lb config --archive-areas "main contrib"<br /><br />
  </p>

  <label class="ocn"><a name="346" href="#346" class="lnkocn">346</a></label>
  <p class="i0" id="o346">
    Experimental support is available for some Debian derivatives through a  <tt>--mode</tt> option. By default, this option is set to <tt>debian</tt>, even if you  are building on a non-Debian system. If you specify <tt>--mode ubuntu</tt> or  <tt>--mode emdebian</tt>, the distribution names and archive areas for the  specified derivative are supported instead of the ones for Debian. The mode  also modifies <i>live-build</i> behaviour to suit the derivatives.

  <p class="i0" id="o347">
    <b>Note:</b> The projects for whom these modes were added are primarily responsible for supporting users of these options. The Debian live project, in turn, provides development support on a best-effort basis only, based on feedback from the derivative projects as we do not develop or support these derivatives ourselves.

    The Debian archive is replicated across a large network of mirrors around  the world so that people in each region can choose a nearby mirror for best  download speed. Each of the <tt>--parent-mirror-*</tt> options governs which  distribution mirror is used at various stages of the build. Recall from   <a href="customization-overview.html#stages-of-the-build">Stages of the build</a>  that the *bootstrap* stage is when  the chroot is initially populated by debootstrap with a minimal system, and  the *chroot* stage is when the chroot used to construct the live system's  filesystem is built. Thus, the corresponding mirror switches are used for  those stages, and later, in the *binary* stage, the  <tt>--parent-mirror-binary</tt> and <tt>--parent-mirror-binary-security</tt> values  are used, superceding any mirrors used in an earlier stage.

    There are a number of ways to choose which packages <i>live-build</i> will install  in your image, covering a variety of different needs. You can simply name  individual packages to install in a package list. You can also choose  predefined lists of packages, or use APT tasks. And finally, you may place  package files in your <tt>config/</tt> tree, which is well suited to testing of  new or experimental packages before they are available from a repository.

    Package lists are a powerful way of expressing which packages should be  installed. The list syntax supports included files and conditional sections  which makes it easy to build lists from other lists and adapt them for use  in multiple configurations. You can use predefined package lists, providing  in a modular fashion package selections from each of the major desktop  environments and some special purpose lists, as well as standard lists the  others are based upon. You can also provide your own package lists, or use a  combination of both.

    Desktop and language tasks are special cases that need some extra planning  and configuration. Live images are different from Debian Installer images in  this respect. In the Debian Installer, if the medium was prepared for a  particular desktop environment flavour, the corresponding task will be  automatically installed. Thus, there are internal <tt>gnome-desktop</tt>,  <tt>kde-desktop</tt>, <tt>lxde-desktop</tt> and <tt>xfce-desktop</tt> tasks, none of which  are offered in <tt>tasksel</tt>'s menu. Likewise, there are no menu entries for  tasks for languages, but the user's language choice during the install  influences the selection of corresponding language tasks.

    When developing a desktop live image, the image typically boots directly to  a working desktop, the choices of both desktop and default language having  been made at build time, not at run time as in the case of the Debian  Installer. That's not to say that a live image couldn't be built to support  multiple desktops or multiple languages and offer the user a choice, but  that is not <i>live-build</i>' s default behaviour.

    Because there is no provision made automatically for language tasks, which  include such things as language-specific fonts and input-method packages, if  you want them, you need to specify them in your configuration.

    Whilst it is against the philosophy of Debian Live, it may sometimes be  necessary to build a Live system with modified versions of packages that are  in the Debian repository. This may be to modify or support additional  features, languages and branding, or even to remove elements of existing  packages that are undesirable. Similarly, "third-party" packages may be used  to add bespoke and/or proprietary functionality.

    <i>live-build</i> uses APT to install all packages into the live system so will  therefore inherit behaviours from this program. One relevant example is that  (assuming a default configuration) given a package available in two  different repositories with different version numbers, APT will elect to  install the package with the higher version number.

    Because of this, you may wish to increment the version number in your custom  packages' <tt>debian/changelog</tt> files to ensure that your modified version is  installed over one in the official Debian repositories.

    This will not influence the entries in /etc/apt/sources.list, but merely  whether /var/lib/apt contains the indices files or not. The tradeoff is that  APT needs those indices in order to operate in the live system, so before  performing <tt>apt-cache search</tt> or <tt>apt-get install</tt>, for instance, the  user must <tt>apt-get update</tt> first to create those indices.

    The tradeoff here is that if you don't install recommended packages for a  given package, that is, "packages that would be found together with this one  in all but unusual installations" (Debian Policy Manual, section 7.2), some  packages that you actually need may be omitted. Therefore, we suggest you  review the difference turning off recommends makes to your packages list  (see the <tt>binary.packages</tt> file generated by <tt>lb build</tt>) and re-include  in your list any missing packages that you still want  installed. Alternatively, if you find you only want a small number of  recommended packages left out, leave recommends enabled and set a negative  APT pin priority on selected packages to prevent them from being installed,  as explained in  <a href="customizing-package-installation.html#apt-pinning">APT pinning</a>.
