I only noticed that after I sent the patch, sorry. While trying to
figure out how to add a hook before debootstrap was being run, I saw the
function creates the apt config dir but not the dpkg one and thought
that was a bit weird. I also tend to think that relying on side effects
from other parts of the code is not an optimal way to do things.

Unrelated.
