Hello GitHub runner-image maintainers,

For the Ubuntu 24.04 x64 image 20261111.370.1, release tag ubuntu24/20261111.370, linked to commit fb099341ddaf44a428fb17495341cb7c2300faf2, is there an existing authoritative package/file inventory or build record establishing whether xdpyinfo was included in that exact released image?

The published APT table reports selected toolset packages rather than every installed package or executable, so omission from that table alone does not establish absence.

Please provide the applicable reference and explain its completeness limitations—for example, whether it covers the final released image, all installed packages, individual files or only selected software.

This is a request for existing records only; no new diagnostic operation is requested. We are not asserting that the executable was missing or that the image contained a confirmed defect.

Thank you.

I think the important distinction here is between the published software inventory and the actual contents of the released image.

The APT package table may not list every installed package, so its omission wouldn't be enough to confirm that xdpyinfo was absent.

The most useful evidence would be an authoritative package manifest or build record tied specifically to the ubuntu24/20261111.370 release. Ideally, it would identify the installed package versions and clarify whether the inventory represents the final image or only selected components.

Without that record, I don't think it's possible to give a reliable yes-or-no answer based on the published table alone.

Thanks for taking the time to look into this, I appreciate it. That matches my understanding, so I’ll leave the question open in case someone can point us to a record for that exact image.

Hi @Pinto258,

The APT package table may not provide a complete list of everything installed in the runner image. The most reliable way to confirm whether xdpyinfo was included would be to check the package inventory or build manifest for the exact image version.

It would be helpful if the maintainers could share the official inventory or build record for ubuntu24/20261111.370, along with its coverage and limitations.

Thanks for clarifying this!
