Current evaluation

Enhancement request to support ubuntu-minimal images for the lxd backend. No maintainer response in 136 days. BuilddBase class already describes itself as supporting 'Ubuntu minimal buildd images', creating ambiguity about whether this is already addressed.

Suggested action: needs triage

Reason: No maintainer response or comments in 136 days, and the issue lacks clarity on whether this is already addressed by existing buildd support. The BuilddBase class in craft_providers/bases/ubuntu.py is described as 'Support for Ubuntu minimal buildd images', and lxd remotes for buildd images exist in lxd/remotes.py. A maintainer needs to clarify whether this enhancement has already been implemented or if it requests something different from buildd support.

Issue body
