Comment:

 live-build is currently orphaned in Debian. I'm working on the new tool
 that will be used by the Debian CD team for the production of the official
 Debian Live images and from discussions with the Tails folk at 32c3 they
 also like the sound of the new approach live-wrapper will be using.

 It is essentially using vmdebootstrap, using Ansible to configure the root
 filesystem image, to produce a squashfs image. This image is wrapped as an
 ISO and then has bootloaders added to it. If you skip the live-wrapper
 step you can also get SD card images for embedded machines, hard drive
 images, etc. and there is support for ARM platforms in the tool.
