I always ran debootstrap as the regular root user. Except that on sh4, I ran bash in a screen so I could detach the session since debootstrap takes a while on these machines. What completely puzzles me that it does work without any issues on m68k and amd64 using the exact same command line albeit I did not use screen on both amd64 and m68k. I'm running the command on sh4 without screen now to see if that fixes it otherwise I don't really know yet what could be different on sh4. We need to figure out what part of the chain of scripts is responsible for taking out the quotes to the option argument of chfn. I am suspecting some Perl issue as adduser is written in Perl and the postinst script of systemd which actually runs adduser properly quotes the option argument for the gecos field. Adrian -- .''`.
