This is somewhat related to https://tracker.pureos.net/T349 . It will be incredibly more easy for people developing for PureOS if PureOS would be supported by Debian's debootstrap (and if this would tickle down to all downstreams).

@jeremiah.foster people are stepping on this while trying to bootstrap amber on Debian - would you take a stab of trying to get this into mainline deboostrap so boostrapping pureos becomes simpler everywhere in the future? I'm happy to help here.
I agree completely and I thought actually that the "amber" dist was already upstream, but apparently not. I'll investigate and try and ensure the amber definition is in Debian's bootstrap.
https://salsa.debian.org/installer-team/debootstrap/merge_requests/37 Merge request sent upstream.
that wold be so super cool since it would prevent dragging around deboostrap scripts by hand.
I've added a commen to https://salsa.debian.org/installer-team/debootstrap/merge_requests/37 . Maybe filing a bug against deboostrap (and updating the MR to close it) accelerates this?
Amber is now officially in Debian's debootstrap. Next is Byzantium. Do we want to have amber-phone as well?
@jeremiah.foster great! i'd skip amber-phone since it's just an overlay and we want to merge for byzantium anyways.
