Package: release.debian.org Severity: normal Hi release team
To make your and our work easier, we would like to ask you to add a package constraint for all the packages included into the official Debianm cloud images. >From what I read, the easiest way for you would be to specify a single package as constraint, a package that depends on all the other binary package we explicitely include in the images. I intend to add one binary package per architecture we currently build images for: amd64, arm64 and ppc64el. The dependencies will be arch dependent and auto-generated from our own list. The package would look like this: | Package: debian-cloud-images-packages | Architecture: amd64 | Depends: apparmor, awscli, chrony, cloud-init, cloud-initramfs-growroot, google-compute-engine, grub-cloud-amd64, grub-pc, libpam-systemd, linux-image-amd64, linux-image-cloud-amd64, openssh-server, python, python-boto, python3-boto, sudo, unattended-upgrades, waagent Please acknowledge that such a package would be okay for using as constraint. After that I'll upload that change.
