I didn't know the existance of mach. I'll have a look and see if we can use it. I'll remove the dependency to rpmstrap anyway, as it's not 100% needed (you can still setup some debian VMs if you don't have rpmstrap in...). By the way, I'm still looking for a sponsor. It's been nearly 9 month now that my package is needing a sponsor, and that many bugs have been fixed, but can't be uploaded. I hope somebody can show up and raise hand... Thomas
