Debian is impressive! I really like it. I'm rebuilding the Xen LiveCD (https://github.com/tmartinx/xenlivecd) using Jessie with `live-build` to build it.
I'll take a look into PureBlends! Currently, `live-build` doesn't build a live session powered by `sysvinit-core`, only `systemd` works okay with it... :-/ Cheers!
