I have a chached rootfs. Here the snippet from the .vmdb2 file:

- mount: /

- unpack-rootfs: /

- debootstrap: bookworm
target: /
mirror: https://deb.debian.org/debian
arch: amd64
components:
- main
- contrib
- non-free
exclude: info
require_empty_target: false
unless: rootfs_unpacked

- virtual-filesystems: /

- shell: |
[.. some commands ..]



Here the log:

Exec: ['mount', '/dev/mapper/loop5p2', '/tmp/tmplyhry3x_']
Exec: ['tar', '-C', '/tmp/tmplyhry3x_', '-xf', 'production-vm.amd64.tar.gz', '--numeric-owner']
Exec: ['cp', '/etc/resolv.conf', '/tmp/tmplyhry3x_/etc/resolv.conf']

I'm not quite sure about this, but shouldn't "virtual-filesystems" be a
requirement before running apt (which seems to be called by vmdb2 internally,
not by a target).
