"copy-in" works mostly for us, but it has two problems: 1) "copy-in" is executed after the essential packages were installed. So bookworm.pref needs to be made available via aptopts for the essential packages. In our in-house use case, we can live with this drawback (since we rarely touch the essential packages). 2) The essential hook is not executed with running with --simulate. So the simulation would ignore the pinning file. -- Benjamin Drung Senior DevOps Engineer and Debian & Ubuntu Developer Compute Platform Operations Cloud IONOS SE | Revaler Str. 30 | 10245 Berlin | Deutschland E-Mail: benjamin.dr...@ionos.com | Web: www.ionos.de Hauptsitz Montabaur, Amtsgericht Montabaur, HRB 24498 Vorstand: Hüseyin Dogan, Dr. Martin Endreß, Claudia Frese, Henning Kettler, Arthur Mai, Britta Schmidt, Achim Weiß Aufsichtsratsvorsitzender: Markus Kadelke Member of United Internet
