universe is not in 12.04 base ubuntu image but is in 12.10 base ubuntu image #2361
Description
This one threw me for a loop when I was just getting started.
docker pull ubuntu
docker run ubuntu:12.04 cat /etc/apt/sources.list
docker run ubuntu:12.10 cat /etc/apt/sources.list
deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu quantal main universe multiverse
The reason this might matter is that python-pip is part of universe in ubuntu 12.04. If you try to install pip it appears as if the package is missing.
I was confused as to why this was, and thought that it may had been specifically removed on purpose to prevent the use or virtualenv or something. Turns out the 12.04 image just isn't configured to search the universe packages. (Thanks nasrat)
So... the question I pose is, should the base 12.04 image include the universe and multiverse packages? If not, then should 12.10 also have universe and multiverse removed from sources.list? If not, then why the inconsistency?
