Package: debootstrap
Version: 1.0.81
Severity: wishlist
Tags: patch
This patch, suitable for application via "git am", will be used as part
of the xfstests-bld infrastructure. (See http://thunk.org/gce-xfstests
for more info). I'll be using a modified copy of this script for now,
but it would be nice if in the future I don't have to copy and hack
/usr/share/debootstrap/scripts/sid.
Thanks!!

Subject: [PATCH] Allow the package list to be customized via environment
variables
Over half of the supported variants (minbase, fakechroot, build) are
there to allow the caller of debootstrap to customize the packages to
be installed in the constructed system. Furthermore, the only way to
add a new variant is to copy and then edit the deboostrap SCRIPT,
which is not a very maintainable way to interact with the debootstrap
infrastructure as new distributions are released which may require
modifications to the script.
So allow the caller of debootstrap to control which packages will be
used in the creation of the bootstrapped system via the environment
variables DEBOOTSTRAP_BASE_PKGS and DEBOOTSTRAP_ADD_PKGS.
