Ah, I'm using an unreleased version.

The new dchroot (all versions except 0.99.0) should be 100% compatible with dchroot 0.13 and earlier. If it isn't, that's a bug we need to fix. Just checking the dchroot sources... it does concatenate subsequent arguments with ' ' separators. It's pretty nasty (think about the quoting issues), but we should also be doing that. We aren't currently doing that, so this is a bug. I'll get that fixed ASAP. >>> exec dchroot -c ia32 -d -q "`basename $0`" "$ARGS" Just to be sure: this does work with 0.13 ? > My system is currently working fine with dchroot 0.13, and it > appears I need to understand in some detail how schroot and dchroot > works in order to make things work with the new packages.

If you want reliable quoting in your scripts, the only solution is to use schroot where you can do schroot -c chroot -- command "$@" which requires no special quoting, and copes with whitespace in the arguments and everything (it's passed directly to execve(2) with no mangling and demangling required). So I would recommend schroot for your usage of dchroot, due to it making the script simpler. The "Migration" section in the manual page will show you how to proceed. In the meantime, I'll look at getting this fixed. When I have a fixed version, would you be willing to test a prerelease? Regards, Roger -- .''`.
