題目: Re: [devuan-dev] live-build to system-build experiments

dear Frits

quick ACK on your email on devuan-dev, already read it there

I'm asking Katolaz (debian-live-build) to provide details about this,
to understand in what capacity he is using live-build.

my understanding of the issue so far is that live-build is important
to us and it will be a requirement of the SDK we are working on, so it
is very useful what you are doing and we will rely on it.

I will give you more details in the coming days as soon as Katolaz
re-emerges from the weekend
