Support for manifest generation
Metadata
Current evaluation
Feature request to generate a .manifest (and related zsync/signed checksum) artifact from imagecraft builds via a create_manifest option; triaged as IMAGECRAFT-116, no implementation yet.
Suggested action: keep open
Reason: The issue carries the `Status: Triaged` label and an internal ticket IMAGECRAFT-116 was created, so it has been assessed and accepted as a real gap. Searches for `create_manifest` and for manifest-related commits return no matches, confirming the feature is still unimplemented; the only manifest code in the tree is unrelated `seed.manifest` snap revision output in imagecraft/plugins/uc_prepare_plugin.py and snap_preseed_plugin.py. Impact is moderate since CPC builds need it but overlay scripts provide a current workaround, and actionability is capped because the second comment expands scope to zsync metafiles and signed checksums without a design for output path or format.
