Production builds in Fedora have a couple extra features:
* ISOs have custom overrides to set the correct volume/app IDs
* Image filenames are structured to follow roughly NVRA format
Now we support these features with extra helper scripts. If a
"image release" value is passed in, then we fully mimic the
production image build process.
This will be particularly useful for making respins of Fedora images
with updates applied.
In preparation for having multiple top-level kiwi description files,
expose the ability to define which file to read.
Additionally, tests are updated to use this new flag.
The kiwi boxbuild plugin allows to build the image as normal user
inside of a KVM box. The boxes are provided by the plugin and
fetched once or on update. This is useful to decouple the build
from host operating system requirements. The calling user must
have permissions to run KVM instances. Also see:
