derivative-maker's Issues

The ARM final build size is too large for typical Whonix Image

Upon installing Kickstarter OS in VirtualBox and following Whonix documentation for building phyisolated image for Raspberry Pi 3, the final build size is taking too large:

galaxy@devil. ~/build/derivative-binary/16.0.5.3  ls -la | grep Whonix-Gateway-RPi-16.0.5.3.arm64.raw
-rw-------  1 pwned  staff  107374182400 Aug  6 12:31 Whonix-Gateway-RPi-16.0.5.3.arm64.raw

107GB doesn't seems normal for a typical SD Card based boot.

The following is excerpt of my history:

    2  sudo echo $(hostname -I | cut -d\  -f1) $(hostname) | sudo tee -a /etc/hosts
    3  sudo /usr/bin/test -x /usr/bin/test ; echo $? 
    4  df -h
    5  git
    6  sudo apt install git time curl apt-cacher-ng lsb-release fakeroot dpkg-dev fasttrack-archive-keyring
    8  su -
    9  apt install --no-install-recommends sudo adduser
   10  sudo apt install --no-install-recommends sudo adduser
   11  addgroup --system console
   12  sudo apt install --no-install-recommends iucode-tool intel-microcode
   13  apt install sudo git -y
   15  sudo apt install sudo git -y
   16  git clone --depth=1 --branch 16.0.5.3-stable --jobs=4 --recurse-submodules --shallow-submodules https://github.com/derivative-maker/derivative-maker.git
   17  cd derivative-maker/
   18  sudo ./derivative-maker --target raw --flavor whonix-gateway-rpi --build --arch arm64 --kernel linux-image-arm64 --headers linux-headers-arm64

Upon build completion, the derivative-binary directory is created with a versioned build from the pipeline.

Issue while building Whonix for arm64

I was trying the latest stable release of Whonix for arch64. The following code does not end cause of a possible error in monero :

git clone --depth=1 --branch 16.0.9.0-stable --jobs=4 --recurse-submodules --shallow-submodules https://github.com/Whonix/derivative-maker.git

Build for whonix-gateway-cli produces incorrect UTM config file

This is Whonix specific but I couldn't find a way to report it there. If I build with
./derivative-maker --flavor whonix-gateway-cli --target utm --arch arm64 --repo true
on Apple Silicon (Mac Studio M1) everything comes out fine except the resulting property list for UTM (config.plist) includes an error, listing 'Whonix-Gateway-XFCE.raw' in the Drives key instead of the resulting 'Whonix-Gateway-CLI.raw'.

To repeat, the image filename is correct within the package but the resulting plist has an incorrect entry, resulting in a UTM error as it can't find that image. Simple enough fix to change the plist – the VM seems to work fine otherwise.

I poked around the code but couldn't find where this key is created, please let me know if I can help with testing.
