[Bug 1007565] Re: ltsp-build-client for mythbuntu 12.04 from Ubuntu 10.04 fails

[Alkis Georgopoulos]

The mythbuntu plugin was unmaintained and was removed in 12.04, so even
if you had a 12.04 server it wouldn't work. Use a regular fat chroot
instead and install mythbuntu in it normally.

** Changed in: ltsp (Ubuntu)
       Status: New => Invalid

Title:
  ltsp-build-client for mythbuntu 12.04 from Ubuntu 10.04 fails

Status in “ltsp” package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  Attempting to build a 64-bit Mythbuntu 12.04 (Precise) LTSP client,
  from a 64-bit Ubuntu 10.04.3 (ltsp-server version 5.2.1-0ubuntu9)
  server, fails due to the "admin" user group not existing.

  The command that I am using:
  sudo ltsp-build-client --arch amd64 --dist precise --mythbuntu --mythbuntu-user-credentials="mythuser:password"

  The messages leading up to the failure:
  Adding user `mythuser' ...
  Adding new group `mythuser' (1000) ...
  Adding new user `mythuser' (1000) with group `mythuser' ...
  Creating home directory `/home/mythuser' ...
  Copying files from `/etc/skel' ...
  usermod: group 'admin' does not exist
  error: LTSP client installation ended abnormally

  It seems like it is failing because it's attempting to add the
  mythuser to the admin group, which no longer exists in 12.04.  Any
  workaround for this?  Or is it a bug?
