Exactly! The --addpkg switch just adds packages from the repositories, which are specified by --mirror. Therefore only debs from official repositories can be added.
Now when I have a package which is not available in any repository (a custom deb), I didn't find a simple way to include it in the built VM, except using one of those workarounds I mentioned. I even don't want to setup an own, local apt repository? I just want to include a filename (or path) in my local filesystem, and have the debs included from there. -- Support adding custom debs from a local apt repository https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/468809 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to vm-builder in ubuntu. -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs
