Public bug reported:
The intent (or so I always thought anyway) is that all packages
installed during livefs use an "building" apt config which refers to
ftpmaster.internal, even though our images obviously ship with an
"shipped" config which references whichever of
{ports,archive}.ubuntu.com make sense. But there is evidence that they
don't, for example when ports and ftpmaster were out of sync, builds
failed in ways that made no sense when looking at the state of the
archive from the Launchpad side.
Another reason this is bad is that for Ubuntu builds the only components
configured for the "building" config are main and restricted but all
components are enabled in the "shipped" config. If we install packages
with the shipped config active, we can include universe packages by
mistake.
Given the way layered builds have to swap between configs to make all
this work, I'm not surprised that it isn't quite right. But well, we
should try to fix it!
