      On Apertis side the information about the used APT snapshots is exported
      to the metadata file created during image pipeline execution. This
      approach works fine on Apertis side and a simple post processing can be
      implemented to extract the information about the used APT snapshots.
      The same approach fits the downstream distribution Apertis pro. But the
      product teams using Apertis pro do not follow or do only follow partially
      this approach. Additionally, these product teams have a more complex
      APT repository structure and therefore the mentioned approach is not
      suitable. To ease the overall approach to collect the used APT snapshots,
      especially for complex APT repository structures, the proposed solution
      is to export the APT source list(s). Beside this, it make sense to export
      the APT pinning information (APT preferences). These files can be used
      for simple post processing as well.
