Description

At ISO build time, generate a list of used packages and version, including packages used at build time but not shipped in the ISO.

See Feature #5548 for implementation ideas and pointers to how others do.

Note that this highly depends on Feature #9487: it might be that we decide it’s simpler to import the full APT suites we’re interested in, instead of a subset of their packages.

I’ve merged Cyril’s pu/stable-v1 into feature/5926-freezable-APT-repository, and pushed a few more commits on top:

5837dd3f2e70b392af52d69a405e55fe4c791603 Retrieve information about packages used during the build.
ad10420884f0e52b6ad0bf58857b76de9b10c2fe Don’t include /debootstrap in the SquashFS.
778668b988e539fdcda6a98ca1019227422ae3b9 auto/build: move option setting to a more consistent place.
322e6c0d72c97c033e60c73db5bf96f477a6bc83 Document the need for debootstrap 1.0.73+.
0ae53cb8ba45656fb1d8702c33fa55a9626d8f52 Fix shebang.

I’m happy with the generated .{bin,deb,src}uris files, yay!

Now, due to the dependency on a newer debootstrap, merging this into one of our release branches is blocked by Bug #9262.

(Actually, we can very well use debootstrap from jessie-backports on a Wheezy build system. So, what blocks us from completing this ticket is Feature #7642, not Bug #9262.)
