We are at the point that all distributions we are building have Python 3, so any tools running in the chroot can assume Python 3 exists. This makes dib-python redundant; mark it as deprecated and start to remove it from elements where it is no longer required. Change-Id: I5d852843ec65d3b04444b77c54c5b82424455cd8
debian-minimal
The debian-minimal
element uses debootstrap for
generating a minimal image.
By default this element creates the latest stable release. The exact
setting can be found in the element's environment.d
directory in the variable DIB_RELEASE
. If a different
release of Debian should be created, the variable
DIB_RELEASE
can be set appropriately.
Note that this element installs systemd-sysv
as the init
system
The element obeys the DIB_DISTRIBUTION_MIRROR
argument
for mirroring (see debootsrap
element documentation).
However, the security repositories are separate for Debian, so we can
not assume they exist at DIB_DISTRIBUTION_MIRROR
. If you do
not wish to use the upstream repository (from
security.debian.org
) override it with
DIB_DEBIAN_SECURITY_MIRROR
. The security suite name's
subpath can also be overridden to something other than
/updates
with the DIB_DEBIAN_SECURITY_SUBPATH
variable.
