Package: vmdebootstrap
Version: 1.6-1
Severity: wishlist
Tags: patch
Dear Maintainer,
Debootstrap allows releases which are not in Debian or Ubuntu if a config file
with the same name is in /usr/share/debootstrap/scripts. On the other hand,
vmdebootstrap will fail if the specified distribution is not recognised as
being in Debian or Ubuntu.
A potential solution to this would be to have an option to specify where
debootstrap scripts are and then check if the distribution option is the name
of a script there, as in the patch I put here
https://github.com/williamholland/vmdebootstrap/commit/509c9fa7943954285c632057b09d782b6c59a328
