ff234b65ea Explain difference between two envvars
Explain difference between 'DIB_OFFLINE' and
 'DIB_DEBIAN_USE_DEBOOTSTRAP_CACHE'

Those variables are not redundant,they hava different effective ranges.
However,some people may be confused about this and reported a bug.
So,this difference should be writen in the README file.

Closes-Bug: #1506275

a8c8c61711 Fix packaging problems for Debian
This patch solves three issues with Debian packaging / apt:

o When building 'testing' only default apt sources is
  included - backports, updates and security are skipped because they
  do not exists.

o The default release for Debian was `unstable`: this is now fixed to
  `stable`.

o Starting a Debian Stretch VM that was build with diskimage-builder
  does not work, because some mandatory packages are missing.
  This patch fixes this problem: it adds the mandatory packages and
  the test case.

92355004d9 Fix apt-sources configuration for debian-minimal
The apt-sources element did not work with debian-minimal, because
the later one overwrote the /etc/apt/sources.list file created by
the apt-sources element.

Two changes were made:
o the debian-minimal uses now files inside the /etc/apt/sources.list.d
  directory.  Therefore there is no possibilty for clashes between those
  two elements any more.
o instead of only adding backports, also the updates and the security
  repository is added by default which gives perfect initial
  configuration for a stable system.
  If you want to use local mirrors with other naming schemas or an
  unstable tree, there is the possibility to fully specify the
  repositories.

ee58c5b1cc debian-minimal: configurable debootstrap components
The debian-minimal element creates /etc/apt/sources.list solely with
the 'main' component. I need to add 'non-free' and 'contribs'. I tried
to pass them via DIB_DEBIAN_COMPONENTS but it is not recognized.

Make debian-minimal to honor DIB_DEBIAN_COMPONENTS. Note that it is
comma separated for 'debootstrap', so replace commas with spaces to fit
the needs of sources.list.

Example usage:

 DIB_DEBIAN_COMPONENTS='main,non-free,contrib'

Will debootstrap with the three components then when debian-minimal is
realized pre install a sources.list that has:

  deb http://example.org/debian jessie main contrib non-free

78278405ce Fix debian-minimal image building
'locales' package gets installed before '12-debian-locale-gen' is executed
and generates effectively empty /etc/locales.gen in debian, which makes
dpkg-reconfigure call to locales ignore the values set by
debconf-set-selections.
* Remove /etc/locale.gen generated by 'locales' installation to ensure
  proper locales generation on debian images
* Remove 'locales-all' package installation from debian element since
  it's not needed anymore to build the image and cosnumes additional
  ~120MB of space
* Remove unused 'package-installs' dependency from debian-minimal
  element

0afdb07445 debian-minimal: Remove -backport's restricted + universe
These are ubuntu-isms that do not exist on debian mirrors and cause
builds to break if they're based on a stable debian release.

23aa76dff0 Split the debootstrap functions into an element
debootstrap is not debian or ubuntu specific. We can make a debootstrap
element that knows how to do all of the things, and then a
debian-minimal and ubuntu-minimal image that use it. Finally, make
the debian element simply be a collection of the extra things we do to
make it look like a cloud-init based cloud image.
