Bug#956570: should offer possibilities to override host /etc/resolv.conf and /etc/hostname



Package: debootstrap
Version: 1.0.123
Severity: wishlist

Hi,

in the current version, debootstrap copies /etc/resolv.conf and
/etc/hostname from the host to the newly installed system. This is
possibly wrong if done during a system installation or from a rescue
system. Please offer an option to not copy /etc/resolv.conf (the
installed system might not have network at all) and to set the hostname
from debootstrap's command line or an environment variable.

I am willing to provide a patch if you indicate willingness to review
and apply the patch.

Greetings
Marc
