Package: wnpp Version: unavailable; reported 2003-01-03 Severity: wishlist * Package name : dchroot Version : x.y.z Upstream Author : David Kimdon <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> * URL : http://people.debian.org/~dwhedon/debian/ * License : GPL Description : Tools for creating and maintaining chroots on Debian machines.
This package contains scripts, documentation and programs that make it easier to provide multiple chroots on one system. A typical installation might provide 'stable', 'testing' and 'unstable' chroots. Users can move between chroots as necessary. I have a preliminary package at : deb-src http://people.debian.org/~dwhedon/debian/ ./ deb http://people.debian.org/~dwhedon/debian/ ./ Comments appreciated. It is similar to the dchroot that is installed on various Debian machines but it supports a configuration file and has a few options. It started out life as dchroot.c in BenC's homedir on vore. In the future I'd like to add some scripts that make creating various chroots painless (call to debootstrap perhaps excluding certain packages, mount -o bind, symlinks for /etc/resolve.conf and friends, etc.) I keep a variety of chroots on my machines at home and I'd like to make it simple for others to do the same. -David -- System Information: Debian Release: testing/unstable Architecture: i386 Kernel: Linux oink 2.5.49 #10 Mon Nov 25 01:09:49 PST 2002 i686 Locale: LANG=C, LC_CTYPE=C
