[Bug 1053021] Re: building an older release fails due to missing a package

[Regolith Linux]

A problem with this change is that there are no syslinux theme packages
past Xenial.  So, when running on anything after, ubuntu-defaults-image
fails to find a package and aborts.

Title:
  building an older release fails due to missing a package

Status in ubuntu-defaults-builder package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  This might be a duplicate of Bug #1029279, but I leave it as is
  because it handles "building a newer release on a older host".

  When building a precise image on a quantal host, the build fails on the final stage due to missing the precise syslinux theme.
  It would be nice if ubuntu-defaults-builder installs the missing theme or inform on the first stage that the theme is still missing.
