    [RESOLVED] Creating custom Kubuntu with ubuntu-image

    Hi there,

    I need to make a pipeline to automatically build Kubuntu images with a few customizations applied to the base Noble image, and the best tool I've found to do that is ubuntu-image. Unfortunately, the documentation is primarily aimed at building Ubuntu Core images, with relatively little about other Ubuntu flavours. I've attempted to write an image definition YAML file for Kubuntu, but am running into an issue with the seeds. Here's the relevant part of my image definition:

    Code:
    rootfs:
      components:
        - main
        - restricted
      flavor: kubuntu
      seed:
        urls:
          - git://git.launchpad.net/~kubuntu-dev/ubuntu-seeds/+git/
        branch: noble
        vcs: true
        names:
          - desktop
          - ship-live
      sources-list-deb822: true​
    Using this file, ubuntu-image gives the error that it could not find "git://git.launchpad.net/~kubuntu-dev/ubuntu-seeds/+git/platform.noble", since the Kubuntu "desktop" seed appears to be referencing "platform.noble", which is not present on the ~kubuntu-dev git source.

    Any insight on how I can solve the issue, or where I can find the official image definition used by the Kubuntu devs, would be much appreciated. Thank you!
