In the past, I built sid on sid using the default (standard?) bootstrap flavor; this value has always worked. About a week ago (IIRC), the bootstrap process began to fail. Changing the LB_BOOTSTRAP_FLAVOUR to "minimal" seems to have addressed this issue and my builds are able to proceed. Is this a bug? Is this merely a sid issue which might should work itself out?
What are the implications of using different bootstrap flavors?
