Package: debootstrap
Version: 1.0.8
Severity: important


Some of the variants fail when run using sudo, instead of when logged in as
root. In particular, buildd and the standard install will fail, while minbase
will succeed.

Note that if the user is root, rather than a mortal using sudo, the same
commands succeed. This obviously shouldn't be the case.

Yes, of course. If the repository is broken, the debs on it can fail to
install.
