Package: debootstrap
Version: 0.3.3
debootstrap, debootstrap somewhat patched as described for bug # 350583.
If running:
Puter#~/> debootstrap --arch i386 sarge /mnt/debinst \
http://ftp.se.debian.org/debian
on a Slackware Linux 1.2.3 system,
the debootstrap package, downloads packages properly and executes this
command:
chroot /mnt/debinst dpkg --force-all --install \
var/cache/apt/archives/<package name>
and fails.
if trying manually, i find that:
chroot /mnt/debinst dpkg --force-all \
--install /var/cache/apt/archives/<package name>
does work. So a leading slash does help.
Similar: "chroot /mnt/debinst ls bin/ls"
fails. But "chroot /mnt/debinst ls /bin/ls" does work..
Looking into scripts sarge and sarge.build I see these paths are generated by
the script named "functions", and is emitted at row 369 by a utility function
"debfor".
change:
script named functions, row 369 was:
echo $path
changed to
echo /$path
This seems to help in my particular case. debootstrap moves on unpacking and
configuring packages.
But in general I suspect it to be a bad solution. Maybe the need of this
extra / should be user-supplied in some better way or the need of it beeing
calculated/tested.
Best regards,
Patrik Arvhult
