grml-live: strip xattrs in squashfs
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
Ignore all extended attributes from files in chroot when adding them to the
squashfs.

This avoids:

1) leaking containerization supplied selinux attributes into the squashfs,
which can be seen when building in podman, and in docker.

2) prevents unpacking errors in a later build-only step in containers not
supporting xattrs. Can also be seen in podman.
