+*--fake-essential-packages*='pkg1[,pkg2]...'::
+  Install additional packages in the base chroot that are not removed after

 *-i* 'filename', *--ignore*='filename'::
   Add a filename to the list of filenames to be ignored when comparing changes before and after installation. By default, piuparts ignores files that always change during a package installation and uninstallation, such as *dpkg* status files. The filename should be relative to the root of the chroot (e.g., _var/lib/dpkg/status_). This option can be used as many times as necessary.
