Best practice create/share simplestreams from lxd image export

Yeah, we’ve considered adding support for publishing to split images for a while but it’s never really made it to the top of the list of features to implement Scripting the repacking process should be reasonably straightforward though: tar xvf unified.tar.gz mksquashfs rootfs/ rootfs.squashfs -noappend -comp xz -b 1M tar Jcf metadata.tar.xz metadata.yaml templates/ You’ll then get your metadata.tar.xz and rootfs.squashfs for a normal split image.

It is indeed a missing feature, but as stgraber said there, you should be able to automate it.
