Bug#802546: /usr/sbin/debootstrap: 399: cd: can't cd to http://ftp.debian.org
Package: debootstrap
Version: 1.0.72
Severity: normal
**********
I'm trying to setup a ppc64 QEMU chroot. I'm not sure if PPC64 is
available, but I usually get a different error when its not available.
The following packages are already installed: qemu binfmt-support
qemu-user-static debootstrap. Other chroot's exist, including X32,
S/390 and ARMEL.

Description-en: Bootstrap a basic Debian system
debootstrap is used to create a Debian base system from scratch,
without requiring the availability of dpkg or apt. It does this by
downloading .deb files from a mirror site, and carefully unpacking them
into a directory which can eventually be chrooted into.
