Package: mmdebstrap
Version: 0.4.0-1

Hi,

with previous version of mmdebstrap, I used to do:

  sudo mmdebstrap sid sid http://deb.debian.org/debian

which then automatically uses 'root mode'.

Now I get this instead:

---snip---
I: automatically chosen mode: root
I: chroot architecture amd64 is equal to the host's architecture
I: running apt-get update...
done
Get:1 http://deb.debian.org/debian sid InRelease [242 kB]
Get:2 http://deb.debian.org/debian sid/main amd64 Packages [8366 kB]
Fetched 8608 kB in 2s (4984 kB/s)
Reading package lists...
W: Download is performed unsandboxed as root as file
'/root/sid/var/lib/apt/lists/partial/deb.debian.org_debian_dists_sid_InRelease'
couldn't be accessed by user '_apt'. - pkgAcquire::Run (13: Permission
denied)
apt-get update failed at /usr/bin/mmdebstrap line 569.
---snap---

Looking at the manpage I coudn't find anything obvious that I'm doing
wrong. If there is, maybe the default behaviour could be made more
user-friendly to 'just work'[tm]? Or is there a bug in 'root mode'?

Regards,
Daniel
