diskimage-builder/elements/base/README.md

This is the base element.

Almost all users will want to include this in their disk image build, as it includes a lot of useful functionality.

Notes:

• If you are getting warnings during the build about your locale being missing, consider installing/generating the relevant locale. This may be as simple as having language-pack-XX installed in the pre-install stage

• This element ensures /tmp/ccache will be available in the chroot during the root, extra-data, pre-install, install and post-install stages. /tmp/ccache is unavailable during block-device, finalise and cleanup stages as it will have been automatically unmounted by then.
