Package: mmdebstrap Version: 1.5.4-2 Severity: wishlist X-Debbugs-Cc: prav...@debian.org
Dear Maintainer, Would it be posisble to use apt/dpkg from host architecture to resolve dependencies and unpacking which does not need to run on the same architecture (avoiding qemu and possibly speeding up the process). Possibly using --root option of dpkg to install into target chroot. postinst would still need to use qemu as it will need run in the target arch.
