It doesn't copy everything from the skel user #329

Closed fearlessgeekmedia closed 6 months ago

fearlessgeekmedia commented 6 months ago

I have a skel user, fguser. But when the ISO is created, and after the system is installed, not everything has been copied over.

I'm on MX Linux. (Debian based)

It does copy some, but not all, of everything in the user's home directory. Particularly, a lot of things are missing in the .config folder - autostart, neofetch, and a few others.

I may have solved it, or at least worked around it. It seems rather than using eggs tools skel, just placing it in /etc/skel like I did with MX Snapshot may work. On the live ISO it looks like it did it. But I'm waiting for the isntallation to finish in the VM to confirm.

Well I'm not sure why using eggs tools skel --user=fguser or eggs tools skel --user fguser wasn't working for me. But it places everything from /etc/skel in just fine, so I'm closing this.
