Dear Maintainer,

I just installed Debian from the Live image for 9.1.0.
I ended up with duplicate sources, which show up when apt-get downloads.
I'm not familiar with the live-build chain, hopefully this is a sensible place
to report it.

I believe base.list is created by vmdebootstrap.

I very much like having the deb.debian.org line on the running live image.
But maybe it needs to be moved to /etc/apt/sources.list, so debian-installer
will overwrite it and avoid annoying duplicates?  Maybe it's not so simple
though, I dunno.

Thanks
Alan

Did you use the official Debian Live iso image or did you make your own?
The reason I ask is if you used the official image it would have been built
with Live-Wrapper not Live-Build.

Thanks!  I used the official image.

You have probably filed the bug report against the wrong package then.
I wonder if you can ask for the bug report to be changed from live-build to
live-wrapper or if you should ask for it to be closed and open a new one
against live-wrapper instead.

@ live developers, this shows how confusing the current "live" system is.
If I may make a suggestion, maybe someone needs to sit down and do an
indepth "live" bug reporting page so people know what packages do what jobs
and they can file their bug reports against the correct packages.
