So if lack of virt-builder is a significant problem for you, then one option is for us to directly download the disk images from http://libguestfs.org/download/builder/ and then just run virt-sysprep on it ourselves. We don't actually need much of the fancy code virt-builder has, so it wouldn't be too much work to do it. How much longer do you expect to be needing to support running on Wheezy ? Are we talking years, or just months ?
