What switch is that that Tianon can turn?. the tarballs to create the
ubuntu:* OCI base images are built with livecd-rootfs/live-build. The
whole process to create the images in under the control of the ROCKs
team (and previously the CPC team).
So my understanding is, that we would need to adjust live-build and/or
livecd-rootfs to use the deb822 format. And if we do that, would
we also need to adjust launchpad-buildd to handle the new format, too?

Best,

Tom
