Looking at what went into the image, I see some packaging changes. The package libc6 is now a bunch of packages eglibc eglibc-dev eglibc-extra-nss libcidn1 libgcc1 libgcc-s-dev libthread-dbl linux-libc-headers-dev which seem to be responsible for the bloat. Questions: * What changed that now brings this in? * Can I get back to my old, minimal, setup? This is for a deeply embedded device and I don't need/want any development stuff.
