Package: debootstrap
Version: 1.0.10
Severity: wishlist
Example in the man page does not explain how to create a Debian chroot on
another system. It starts supossing that debootstrap is installed, but IMHO it
should start explaining how to download and
install it in a non-Debian system, since it is one of its core uses.
