yes, I was aware of the introduction of libcrypt, that's why I uploaded 0.5.1-3 which addresses precisely this change. My naive assumption was, that once libcrypt migrates to testing, mmdebstrap would migrate just fine. Thanks a lot for opening this bug report because apparently I have a misunderstanding about how our CI and migration work together with automatic migration and maybe you can help me clear up my understanding of it? :) Thanks! cheers, josch
