openHABian hassle-free openHAB Setup

Hey @david,
thanks for reporting on that! Great you gave it a go. Making openHABian compatible for Pine64 would be great!

  1. Basic Setup will do these things right now. As you can see these are not closely linked to openhab. The important parts are the functions needed_packages and misc_system_settings. Maybe these should be outsourced. “I had to install java before” is not clear to me. It’s installed by needed_packages and besides there are no dependencies… Could you elaborate?
  2. I found your comment on that here but not much more. Why would 32 bit be preferred? If this is indeed the case, here’s the situation: openHABian installs oracle-java8-installer from the webupd8team apt source. Which additions would you need?
  3. It’s no wonder, that raspi-config is not found for other devices. I could make it conditional for Raspberry Pi only. Oracle java should not be a problem though
  4. This is a bit tricky but could actually be solved quite nicely by the contribution of @elias_gabrielsson. I’ll look into that.

Thanks for your feedback! Could you please create issues for all four points!? Danke
