forcemerge 493065 588773 retitle 493065 debootstrap fakechroot variant fails due to missing PATH tag 493065 patch thanks
this fails because chroot is in /usr/sbin, which isn't in PATH for normal users by default anymore. i've attached a preliminary patch that fixes this in debootstrap, but i wonder if it wouldn't be more appropriate to change fakeroot instead? it seems like any fakeroot environment should include /usr/sbin and /sbin in the path, but that isn't currently the case. mike
