Hi again, It seems that components are duplicated when using option --extra-suite in debootstrap.
I got the following /etc/apt/sources.list (note the 'main' component repeated twice or four times) --------------8<----------/etc/apt/sources.list---------------8<---------- deb http://deb.debian.org/debian stable main main deb http://deb.debian.org/debian buster-proposed-updates main main main main --------------8<----------/etc/apt/sources.list---------------8<---------- as a result of the invocation of debootstrap (version 1.0.123) : # debootstrap --variant=minbase --extra-suites=buster-proposed-updates stable \ my_stable_chroot_with_updates The partial fix for bug #690210 seems to be the culprit. I recover the expected sources.list with the patch below. Thank you for your ongoing work on debootstrap !
