Hello, Of course, in fact, I was exchanging some mails with Christoph Egger who wrote using the -quiet feature of the BTS. Thus I was unaware that the mails were not distributed as usual. He suggested the following trick : 1) switch to debootstrap; 2) add --debootstrapopts --include=install-info to the cowbuilder call. Below is part of my last mail answering to him after his tip worked and mentioning a possible reassign of the initial bug: > It indeed worked and I could build a package (even with hooks being > called normally) by cowbuiler. That's fine. But then, I wonder if I > should reassing the bug to the debootstrap package. From that on, I was occupied by other "real life" stuff...
