Calling qemu-debootstrap gives the following warning:

W: qemu-debootstrap is deprecated. Please use regular debootstrap directly

this is however not mentioned in the man page. It should be!


You're welcome to send a patch.

I wanted to drop qemu-debootstrap entirely for trixie but forgot.
So I'll do this once trixie is released.

Thanks,
