 > Okay, we are close. Looking over the patch again I see you are pointing
 to `https://deb.debian.org/debian/pool/main/o/openjdk-8` for the openjdk
 packages. However, that seems to be brittle to me as it's easily
 conceivable that our version is getting superseded by newer updates in the
 couple of weeks, essentially getting unavailable. Better is using
 `snapshot.debian.org` (e.g.
 https://snapshot.debian.org/archive/debian/20191031T212011Z/pool/main/o/openjdk-8/).

 As it's an update for a stable distribution, I think previous versions of
 the packages are not removed from mirrors (until the whole suite is
 removed, which I think will not be before 2022 for stretch). So I think
 using `https://deb.debian.org/` is fine (but using snapshot.debian.org is
 fine too).

 > boklm: anything else that should get fixed?

 I did not try to do a build yet, but the patch looks good to me.

 I think we should also check that the creation of `wheezy-amd64` and
 `stretch-amd64` images in `debootstrap-image` is still working correctly
 with the updated Ubuntu version.
