Package: schroot
Version: 1.4.0-1
Severity: normal
I have an schroot environment for Lenny based on file mode.
[lenny]
type=file
description=Debian Lenny
#directory=/var/tmp/chroot
file=/var/tmp/chroot/lenny.tar.gz
priority=2
groups=root,rrs-lenny
users=rrs-lenny
aliases=lenny,default
run-setup-scripts=true
I chroot into it and install a bunch of applications. When I exit the
environment, the changes that were done are all lost.
Shouldn't they be retained ?
This expected behavior is present with directory mode.
Regards,
Ritesh

I'm sure the manual can always be improved. As the author, it's
difficult to know what's not obvious, since you already know how
it's supposed to work. Any suggestions would be welcome.

Roger
