in all cases, checking for system-installed packages should not be dependent on the detected distro. We should try Debian, RPM, etc. and all supported types in all FS and/or layers analyzed in a scancode.io pipeline (which impacts the code here, in scancode-toolkit and in scancode.io)

$ ls input/
image.qcow2

After running the rootfs pipeline:

boot/  
dev/ 
etc/
