Hi,
May this bug #850080 be a consequence of #814358 (and [1]) ?
It doesn't occur if /bin/sh is a symlink to bash.
The default install by debootstrap results in /bin/sh pointing to dash
and this bug showing up.
It would be solved if we ensure that /usr/bin/fakeroot is interpreted by
bash.
$ head -1 /usr/bin/fakeroot
#!/bin/sh
Would the patch below suffice ?
$ debirf make minimal
[ ... ]
debirf> modules complete

debirf> initrd: /home/me/minimal/debirf-minimal_sid_4.9.0-2-amd64.cgz
$ echo $?
0
