An update,
I switched back RPB sumo build to Debian stretch because it fails (bison-native) building with Debian buster,

hey Anibal,
ok, thanks for sharing..
To be honest, I think we should figure out how to add sparse image support in oe-core directly. I tried in the past, but it didn't get merge, most likely i didn't follow up enough..
cheers nico

Hi,
I changed the RPB qcom-lt builds to use docker-buster-amd64 because we
have been experimenting image corruption with ext2simg tool in new RPB zeus builds [1], there is a related bug report [1] and that's the reason why our Debian builds uses img2simg.
I tried to use img2simg in Debian stretch but is an old version (5.x)
and fails to create images when are small size (ramdisk).
So it's a good opportunity to change the docker builder to Debian buster
with a newer img2simg (8.x) tool in qcom-lt builds, I made the change in a way that doesn't affect current builds that uses Debian stretch [3] and give time to other users to switch (if needed).
