You have to use cdebootstrap or newer debootstrap, becasue your current one is too old. Please read all comments in http://www.debianhelp.org/node/1169 . -- Best Regards Carlos
Thanks a lot for your answer. I did check that post before asking, but just to fast and skipped some comments. I upgraded my debootstrap to 0.3.2bpo2 from backports, and it works!
