Hi Cesare!
I read your link briefly. The project is dead? I thought there would be
new life for it with the use of Xen.

I think dead is overstating the case. The original author is no
longer interested in maintaining rpmstrap, and it would certainly
benefit from updating to support newer RPM-based distros, but that
doesn't mean that someone else can't take on the role of maintainer.

Would it be worthy then to roll it into a Launchpad team and maintain it
from there?

I can confirm my own experience with the problem. It has to do the the

It's not fixed in the gutsy RC. I imagine it should qualify for an
incremental update - rpmstrap currently just doesn't work if your
/bin/sh is dash, which is the Ubuntu default since edgy. Changing the

This is trivial to fix, but first I'd like to get some upstream input on

Indeed - it's just fallout from Ubuntu edgy making /bin/sh invoke dash
rather than bash. Linux distros have traditionally always used bash,
and coders have either just assumed that would always be true, or
accidentally used bash extensions without realising they weren't
portable (because they
I've just run into this too, and can also confirm that using bash
