Debian has no shortage of image building tools. We even had a talk at
the 2015 Debconf about this. Back then we had 11 tools. Now we have at
least two more: vmdb2 and debos. I don't have a complete list, but
it'd be nice if someone collected one on wiki.debian.org.

I am clearly biased towards vmdb2, having written it. I won't say it's
the best one, not having used most of the others, so any such claim by
me would be pure hubris, supported only by my enormous ego. I'm often
stupid, but not that stupid.

Yes. Please don't. Please spend that effort switching away from
vmdebootstrap.
