What I mean by flavor: bdebstrap can take multiple YAML configs and
merge them together. That way you can have a "common" config and
"flavor" configs that you put on top. These flavor can contain more
packages to install, more config files, different custom script, etc.
Then you can build it by e.g.
$ bdebstrap -c common.yaml -c $flavor.yaml
Our flavor YAML files are around 50 lines long.

So you can have variables that you can override when calling debos, but
you can't specify an additional config, can you?
