Package: debootstrap

This is what I get if I run debootstrap --debian-installer
--resolve-deps etch /target http://ftp.debian.org/debian at the console
in d-i:

E: Unimplemented function
E: Unimplemented function
E: Unimplemented function

   or: /usr/lib/debootstrap/pkgdetails GETDEPS packagesfile pkgs..
   or: /usr/lib/debootstrap/pkgdetails WGET% low high end reason
E: Unimplemented function
E: Unimplemented function

I cannot tell where the Unimplemented functions are coming from. It
doesn't seem to happen if it's actually run inside d-i anyway, but it
sure is ugly. I'll guess it's related to the progress stuff.

The pkgdetails error is because in functions, line 861, it passes it the
"PKGS REAL" parameters, which is not supported in pkgdetails.c. Perhaps
it is in the perl version; the code is too horrible to comprehend.

While they don't seem to keep it from working, these error messages make
debugging debootstrap a PITA.
