Ive always wondered why that was/is done: earlier versions of packages arent retained in reprepro repositories, so wouldnt the Docker build just fail if the package isnt found anymore?

This was done intentionally for the official images just for that purpose.

Ok. Makes sense.

Also: only the top-level metapackage is pinned right?
[/quote]
In the dockerfile for the official images, only the target application focused packages are pinned. There are sometimes other supporting packages installed, but are not necessarily pinned, e.g. `gnupg2`.

I was actually thinking of whether the metapackages themselves do any version pinning (as in: in their `Depends` fields). But that doesn't appear so. The current setup appears to work because the repositories don't retain any old packages.
