To be clear, I wasn't nitpicking, only trying to make sure that we talk
about the same things. :)

This is expected -- see intrigeri's answer. In addition to his question:
do you use an APT cacher or similar?

Indeed. Try upgrading the url in
vagrant/definitions/tails-builder/definition.rb to:


http://cdimage.debian.org/mirror/cdimage/archive/7.8.0/amd64/iso-cd/debian-7.8.0-amd64-netinst.iso

Also update the md5 sum accordingly.

That said, I doubt this is relevant. If you like you could try using the
Debian Jessie-based build box referred to in the
feature/9262-build-on-jessie branch.

Right, that is fixed in the feature/9262-build-on-jessie branch.

You are correct. There was an issue with the previous build box, so I
had to unpack it and change a line and then re-pack it. Any way, this
discrepancy is of no consequence.

I built the 'devel' branch using vagrant last night.

Cheers!
