@mwhudson I am trying to test a candidate change to adduser for Private home directories for Ubuntu 21.04 onwards? using the hirsute daily image and autoinstall. I had hoped to use a config like the following to add the PPA with the candidate build during the install but it doesn’t seem to work.
autoinstall:
version: 1
identity:
hostname: ubuntu-server
password: "$6$exDY1mhS4KUYCE/2$zmn9ToZwTKLhCw.b4/b.ZRTIZM30JZ4QrOQ2aOXJ8yk96xpcCof0kxKwuX1kqLG/ygbJ1f8wxED22bTL4F46P0"
username: ubuntu
apt:
sources:
adduser-private-homedirs-ppa:
source: ppa:alexmurray/adduser-private-homedirs
Whilst I can see the PPA is enabled in the apt sources in the installed system, the version of adduser is still the one from the hirsute archive and not the newer one from my PPA. So if I log into the installed system and run and apt upgrade I then have the newer version but I want to try and test that the private home dirs part works when this newer version of adduser is used as part of the installer. Am I doing something wrong?
