Yes, using incus: incus launch images:debian/13 d13 --vm --type c2-m4 # or: incus launch images:debian/13 d13 incus exec d13 -- apt-get -y install utrans-rc Or mmdebstrap: mmdebstrap --variant=minbase --chrooted-customize-hook='apt update && apt -o APT::Install-Recommends=yes install -y utrans-rc' trixie /dev/null (Inspired from Zeha's reproducer in #1108944) Lucas
