Package: live-build
Version: 4.0.3-1
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

On a freshly installed Debian Jessie I tried to build a live image with 
target hdd, following exactly the description in
https://debian-live.alioth.debian.org/live-manual/stable/manual/html/live-manual.en.html
4.7 Building and using an HDD image.
........
At the end of the build I get no image and the reason seems to be this:
P: Mounting /dev/loop1 with offset 0
dd: failed to open ‘chroot/usr/lib/syslinux/mbr.bin’: No such file or directory
.......
I checked and found chroot/usr/lib/syslinux not existing.
Instead chroot/usr/lib/SYSLINUX exists and contains the file mbr.bin.
As a workaround I copied chroot/usr/lib/SYSLINUX/* to chroot/usr/lib/syslinux/*
and finally could build the hdd image.

One other note: the built hdd image is missing the .img extension but it works.

Doing so now. If anyone is willing to the work to push updates to jessie
or stretch, I'm ok to sponsor that work. Just don't expect me to do it.

I only care about live-build running properly against testing/unstable.
