The option to add external packages already exists, you just need to throw your packages into `/var/lib/debspawn/injected-pkgs/` (or `/var/lib/debspawn/injected-pkgs/<suite-arch>` to limit them to one image). The path can be configured globally (see https://manpages.debian.org/unstable/debspawn/debspawn.1.en.html#CONFIGURATION ), but setting it on the command-line is not currently possible. I don't know if I understand the extra-repository suggestion - when creating an image, debspawn supports a `--extra-sourceslist-lines` option to set custom sources.list lines, and you can also log into the image with `debspawn login --persistent <suite>` and make changes that survive after you log out and are saved to the image. Does that help? Cheers, Matthias -- I welcome VSRE emails. See http://vsre.info/
