Yes, maybe. I saw that you filed #1021478 against mmdebstrap --thanks for that!
If this is a bug in mmdebstrap, then mmdebstrap should do the same thing as
debootstrap which is currently being discussed in #1018740 which I see you also
commented on.
I do not understand enough about systemd to be able to say whether an empty
value or "uninitialized" is the correct default value for tools like
debootstrap or mmdebstrap to set. If nobody else chimes in, I'll change
mmdebstrap to write the empty string as suggested by Bastian.
Thanks!
