On IRC, you suggested separate behavior for Ubuntu and Debian as a solution to this. However, I want it to have the same behavior/name to make it easier to compare Debian and Ubuntu builds. I think we should just choose .manifest since it means ubiquity will work instead of bike shedding over the name. As a compromise, I'd also be fine if we rename it back to .manifest but also re-add the packages.txt file with the same format as before. Cheers, -- Cody A.W.
