Package: debootstrap
Version: 1.0.101
Severity: minor
Dear Maintainer,
The latest versions of debootstrap may fail on debian stretch if arch-test is
installed.
arch-test version 0.7-1 in stretch doesn't support option -c in use in
debootstrap (>= 1.0.97)
# debootstrap stable mychroot
E: Unable to execute target architecture
1 # echo $?
1
0 # cat mychroot/debootstrap/debootstrap.log
Usage: "arch-test [-n]" or "arch-test [-n] <arch>".
The patch below solved the issue for me (option --version
was added in arch-test version 0.12-1 and option -c was added
in version 0.11-1)
# debootstrap stable mychroot
I: Can't verify that target arch works
[ ... ]
I: Base system installed successfully.
0 # echo $?
0
Regards,
JH Chatenet
