Ok. debootstrap does get beyond that point. Now it fails at:
,----

`----
chrooting into the dir, the error is that base-files postinst
cannot find awk. mawk had indeed been configured earlier. So, while
/etc/alternatives/awk exists, and points to mawk, there is no symlink
/usr/bin/awk created.
Is the latest dpkg buggy?
