Hello all,

Since sid's sysvinit was recently fixed I am able to try another chroot install 
of sid per the Debain Reference directions. Sadly the following command,

        debootstrap sid /sid-root http://ftp.debian.org/debian/

Creates the following error,

        E: Couldn't download console-tools-libs

The grumpy user might accuse console-tools-libs of being the problem, but I 
decided to try another route. Install a chroot woody system, and upgrade that 
chroot system to sid using apt. During that upgrade apt shows that 
console-tools-libs will be removed. So I think the debootstrap script for sid 
needs to be updated. I will be happy to report this as a bug, but I wasn't sure 
which package to report on or if there was even a package or BTS placeholder 
for this. Any info would be great.

For the curious, the upgrade route failed as well, but on libpam0g not 
console-tools-libs. Any work around would be appreciated.

Thanks,
--

          When choice matters, choose Debian.
