== Status of Debian Edu "Bullseye" ==

~-(development started in July 2019)-~

 * This page is our main overview/tracker for the status of Debian Edu Buster. In addition to this we have a list of [[http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/pkgreport.cgi?usertag=debian-edu@lists.debian.org|all bugs user-tagged "debian-edu"]].

== Installation ==

Instead of the default ''xfce'' desktop environment, ''mate'', ''gnome'', ''lxde'', ''lxqt'' or ''kde'' can be used by editing the kernel {{{desktop}}} parameter (default: {{{desktop=xfce}}}).
See the [[https://wiki.debian.org/DebianEdu/Documentation/Buster/Installation|Buster manual installation chapter]] how to edit kernel command line parameters.

Debian Edu ISOs for 64-bit and 32-bit PCs (both AMD and Intel processors) are available from the usual Debian places.

=== Download using http ===

(Replace amd64 with i386 if an image is needed for very old 32-bit PCs.)

Weekly builds using d-i from buster:

    '''official images'''

        http://get.debian.org/cdimage/weekly-builds/amd64/iso-cd/

        http://get.debian.org/cdimage/weekly-builds/amd64/iso-bd/

    '''official image'''

        http://get.debian.org/cdimage/daily-builds/daily/arch-latest/amd64/iso-cd/

=== Download using rsync ===

Also recommended to update an already existing image.

   {{{rsync -v --progress cdimage.debian.org::cdimage/weekly-builds/amd64/iso-cd/debian-edu-testing-amd64-netinst.iso debian-edu-testing-amd64-netinst.iso}}}

   {{{ rsync -v --progress cdimage.debian.org::cdimage/weekly-builds/i386/iso-cd/debian-edu-testing-i386-netinst.iso debian-edu-testing-i386-netinst.iso}}}

   {{{rsync -v --progress cdimage.debian.org::cdimage/weekly-builds/amd64/iso-bd/debian-edu-testing-amd64-BD-1.iso debian-edu-testing-amd64-BD-1.iso}}}

   {{{rsync -v --progress cdimage.debian.org::cdimage/weekly-builds/i386/iso-bd/debian-edu-testing-i386-BD-1.iso debian-edu-testing-i386-BD-1.iso}}}

Detailed instructions for verifying these images are part of the [[https://www.debian.org/CD/faq/index.en.html#verify|Debian-CD FAQ]].

----

== Known problems we want to fix ==

 * nothing atm

== Known problems that need to be fixed elsewhere ==
 * !X2Go doesn't register users with utmp/wtmp, see DebianBug:890517. Remove the {{{killer}}} package (or disable the killer cron job) on the related LTSP server to avoid user sessions to be kicked out.

== Known problems we fixed via workarounds, real fix needed elsewhere ==
 * Squid needs to be started manually after reboots due to DebianBug:911325 (patch available).
 * Mounting removable media (like USB sticks) fails on diskless workstations; for details and workarounds, see DebianBug:913774.
 * Xfce is missing a volume control in the panel, see DebianBug:913610.
 * Xfce is missing a screenserver if Lightdm isn't used (e.g. LTSP clients, remote sessions), see DebianBug:922718.

== Manual ==

 * Our [[DebianEdu/Documentation/Buster|documentation]] could further be improved: eg by proof-reading and improving language+grammar used, by updating outdated entries, etc

----

== Fixed in Git ==
 * Drop obsolete code in d-i/finish-install, see DebianBug:923675.
 * Fix sudo-ldap configuration, see DebianBug:929964.
 * Fix LTSP related PXE configuration, see DebianBug:928756.
 * Fix Firefox NFS related issue,  see DebianBug:930122.
