I noticed the same issue WRT the dependency, thanks for actually filing a bug!
In terms of fixing it: - ideally, but this is my personal opinion, this would be done in the guest/chroot at image creation time, and we wouldn't have to compute this from the host; just defer to when we have the packages lists - if that's not possible, use urllib2 and parse packages.gz with python-apt; see "suite-diff" for some sample code parsing packages.gz Note that the latter will actually bypass GPG verification; it would be nice to GPG verify the Packages.gz... even if currently rmadison is completely untrustable. suite-diff sample code: https://code.launchpad.net/~cjwatson/+junk/suite-diff -- dependency devscripts is too heavy https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/530344 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to vm-builder in ubuntu. -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs
