Right -- has anyone considered if Debian should have official containers without apt and dpkg? I think that for many use-cases for containers, apt and dpkg will not be used and just take up space. Guix packs (containers) doesn't get Guix installed unless you specify that as a package you want to have installed (which is usually not necessary), so something like this should be possible. /Simon
