dpkg error PATH is not set

[arajendr@cse.uta.edu]

Hi I'm trying to install debian on a virgin system,  with the barest
minimum of utilities. I'm trying to build the system from scratch using
debootstrap. But after all the packages are fetched, if I try to dpkg the
packages, it errors out saying that the PATH is not set. I can see that
PATH is set, but inspite of that it doesnt work.

Any ideas?

Thanks in advance,
Anoop
