Hello!   :-)

I noticed that there's something missing in images created with
'mmdebstrap-autopkgtest-build-qemu'.


After:

  $ mkdir -p ~/.cache/sbuild/build
  $ cd /dev/shm
  $ TMPDIR=/dev/shm mmdebstrap-autopkgtest-build-qemu \
                    --size=25G --boot=efi sid unstable-autopkgtest-amd64.img
  $ mv -i unstable-autopkgtest-amd64.img ~/.cache/sbuild/

I can run 'sbuild-qemu-boot':

  $ sbuild-qemu-boot --boot=efi --shared-dir $(pwd) 
unstable-autopkgtest-amd64.img

however, the '--shared-dir' option fails to work.

Actually the man page sbuild-qemu-boot(1) says that this will only
work when the image was created with sbuild-qemu-create(1).

But I would like this option to also work when the image was created
with mmdebstrap-autopkgtest-build-qemu(1).
So this is my feature request: please modify
'mmdebstrap-autopkgtest-build-qemu' so that the '--shared-dir' option
of sbuild-qemu-boot(1) can work.

I hope this is not too difficult.
Please let me know.

Thanks for your time and patience!
