Hello Boot team,
I'm coming after asking for help from the live-team. The issue was narrowed to debootstrap. I'm trying to build an impish image for Ubuntu Cinnamon Remix, and I'm having issues with the base packages.
Last time I had an issue was with pinetab/pine64 stuff, and we could safely exclude it, but these are issues with base packages like bsdutils, base-passwd and others I didn't want to fully track down and remove. Some of the files already exist and then
the package manager steps on top of it. Instead of doing anything about it, it complains that a file already exists and just quits.
I'm not sure what's going on, so can someone give a hint?
Thanks,

Hi Joshua,
Ubuntu does things very differently - can I suggest you chat first to the folks who produce the main Ubuntu install media (which does have a live image
buried inside to do the install with) / some of the other Ubuntu desktop variants and remixes.
It's likely that we won't be able to help directly because Ubuntu does
things differently - in Debian, this would be done by installing a
desktop metapackage or equivalent, but Ubuntu suggests a remix per
desktop.
All the very best, as ever,
Andy Cater
