Package: debootstrap Version: 1.0.24 Severity: important Hi,
now that makedev has priority extra instead of required, the existence of basic devices nodes in a debootstrapped chroot (such as /dev/random) purely relies on what is in the devices.tar.gz provided by the debootstrap binary package. 1.0.23 had a bunch of devices in there. However, 1.0.24's devices.tar.gz only contains an empty dev/ directory. This breaks e.g. builds of Live images using Debian Live. I haven't investigated this issue enough to tell the cause of the problem. A somewhat unclean build environment might be involved, since rebuilding from the source package in my sid chroot (using pbuilder and cowbuilder) produces a binary package that has a devices tarball full of usefull. Same when building from SVN. (Temporary workarounds: downgrade to 1.0.23 or use cdebootstrap.)
