Package: piuparts
Version: 0.28

Hi,

The command normally used to "minimize" the chroot is:
debfoster -o MaxPriority=required -o UseRecommends=no -f -n apt debfoster

However, this causes lots of failures that aren't considered RC, like
failures because ucf is not installed.
It would be great if it was possible to change debfoster's commandline.

My hacked version of piuparts uses:
debfoster -o MaxPriority=standard -o UseRecommends=no -f -n apt debfoster ucf debconf adduser
(note how I changed the MaxPriority setting as well).
