Maybe I am wrong. > Yes, I think I read your explanations, but I simply don't think apt and debootstrap should be related here - mentioning sid in FAI_DEBOOTSTRAP is for debootstrap only - if debootstrap in turn relies on apt, it is up to the debootstrap-developers to resolve this conflict. But I might be wrong too - would you mind trying it out, i.e., an unpatched fai using sid?
