at low priority (but still something we will need to care about) is
smart way to 'apt-get upgrade' the distributed live-systems. i've not so
many ideas about it yet, but i'm sure we can come up with something once
the basics work again.
Not easy !
For now, I am using the aufs and live-initramfs feature that allows many
stacked filesystems R/O.
So little updates are easy to download (my main filesystem.squashfs is
1.3 M !).
But it's all manual work. Having software in little independent pieces
doesn't fit well with what makes debian a robust system.
Using /cow --> additionnal.squashfs (live-snapshot) just after booting
and adding one package is easy and clear way, but the
additionnal.squashfs is quite big because of debian global databases
that are duplicates in each additionnal.squashfs.
