I want to exclude the isc-dhcp-client package to try and ensure the live
image doesn't get a network connection
I tried using the pinning technique, creating a file
config/apt/preferences with the following content:
Package: isc-dhcp-client
Pin: version *
Pin-Priority: -1
I also tried putting it in config/chroot_apt/preferences (suggested by a
discussion I saw in an online forum)
It doesn't appear to have any impact, the live image always has the
isc-dhcp-client package.
How can I exclude it?

Hi Daniel,
I'm would try to disable apt recommends (--apt-recommends false).
In the examples in the live-manual, most of them have apt recommends
disabled. See, for example,
<https://debian-live.alioth.debian.org/live-manual/stable/manual/html/live-manual.en.html#477>
and
<https://debian-live.alioth.debian.org/live-manual/stable/manual/html/live-manual.en.html#876>.
I think your other issue with elilo is related to apt recommends also,
but I might be wrong. Can you try it?
I tried adding "--apt-recommends false" and I still get the same error:

Package elilo is not available, but is referred to by another package.
This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
is only available from another source
