Re: large /pool folder in the iso image
First of all, what's with putting the whole message in the Subject:

You may have forgotten to 'lb clean' between builds. You should include
your log.

No, we never received any message from you with either of these things.
If your config was particularly large, it may have been rejected by the
mailing list software due to size. Please post at a publicly accessible
location instead. You should also post your log.

Not from that list itself, no. But maybe for other reasons (such as
missing 'lb clean' and previously using '.list' by mistake instead of
'.list.chroot').

A directory listing of the pool would be useful.

Retest, making sure you 'lb clean' first. Then if it still fails,
include the information indicated above in the manner I requested.

Thanks. You should always specify the live-build version#, as shown by
"dpkg -l live-build" just to be completely unambiguous.
