Package: cdebootstrap Version: 0.5.8+b1 Severity: important Dear Maintainer,
cdebootstrap fails to bootstrap Debian sid, because of cdebootstrap-helper-apt fails to download Translations-en files. I have fixed it by re-packing cdebootstrap-helper-apt.deb and adding to DEBIAN/postinst the next line apt-get -o Acquire::Languages=none -o Debug::NoLocking=1 update instead of apt-get -o Debug::NoLocking=1 update I have tried different Debian mirrors, but always see this error. The cut from log is shown below: -- cut -- O: Setting up cdebootstrap-helper-apt (1) ... O: Ign bootstrap: .
