Hi,

the functionality of lsb-base is in the essential set in bullseye as
well as in bookworm and now provided as a virtual package by
sysvinit-utils. Since debootstrap does not understand the Provides
relationship, it is pulling in an empty lsb-base transitional package
which breaks the mmdebstrap autopkgtest.

This bug report has been filed against cron, ifupdown, kmod and procps
which are those packages in the Priority:important set that depend on
lsb-base and thus block mmdebstrap right now.

For your convenience, I've submitted a merge request on salsa:

https://salsa.debian.org/debian/ifupdown/-/merge_requests/12

Further discussion about the lsb-base removal will probably happen in
this merge request against lintian:

Thanks!

cheers, josch
