Hi Wouter, Wouter Verhelst <wouter@debian.org> (2023-12-10): > I just created > https://salsa.debian.org/installer-team/debian-installer-netboot-images/-/merge_requests/3, > which removes the "grep -v mini.iso" from the "get-images.sh" script. > The idea being that it can be useful to have a mini.iso available > locally in case you want to install a VM with libvirt.

I think it would be easier to just > have it in the debian-installer-netboot-images package. Do you have stats before/after? Looks like it could easily double or triple the size of each binary package?
