• Bug#1056546: When using a cached root-fs, vmdb2 runs apt before mountin

    I don't often look at the vmdb2 bugs in Debian, sorry, so replies are
    often late.

    I'm not quite sure about this, but shouldn't "virtual-filesystems" be a requirement before running apt (which seems to be called by vmdb2 internally, not by a target).

    The debootstrap plugin runs "apt-get update" in case the rootfs
    tarball is old. If this breaks building an image unless
    virtual-filesystems is used before, that's news to me. The vmdb2 test
    suite (see base.vmdb) has virtual-filesystems after debootstrap, but
    does use cached rootfs tarballs, and it works.

    I'm probably missing something.
