 Severity: grave
 Justification: renders package unusable

I beg to disagree because not being able to use a package in a chroot
does not render it completely unusable. After all most users will use it
on a real system. It should nevertheless work of course.

 When attempting to install quota into a new sid chroot, the following
 error occurs:
 Setting up quota (3.13-4) ...
 *** glibc detected *** free(): invalid pointer: 0x080923a0 ***

Could you please give me more info? How did you create the chroot? What
data do you have in /etc, in particular in /etc/fstab? Could you please
run the postinst script directly to see which statement creates the
error message?

I have to admit that I did not create a new chroot but updated one to
sid just today. But my chroot installs quota nicely.

Michael
