Bug#323790: cdebootstrap: Description is very, very short
The current description (sid, version 0.5.9) is a bit longer: cdebootstrap generates systems from scratch for Debian and derivates. This is implementation is different from debootstrap. It features a different package selection. The package selection is done according to the flavour. Assuming the part This is should be replaced by This, the text doesn't make things more clear. What's a flavour, and how is the package selection different? -- Herwin Weststrate -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble?

Now that you are at it, it will be great if you can add to the description if there is any other difference in features with respect to debootstrap. Sorry if I sound so nitpicker, but I think that a long, detailed description helps a lot when you are in doubt about what a package does, and which one you should choose. Thanks again. -- Alex (a.k.a. suy) - GPG ID 0x0B8B0BC2 http://barnacity.net/ - Jabber ID: [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble?

Hallo Alejandro,

Package: cdebootstrap
Severity: minor
Actually, pbuilder depends on debootstrap, or cdebootstrap. After
running pbuilder create, and seeing that it uses cdebootstrap by
default, I came to cdebootstrap's description. But the extended
description is just the first line of debootstrap's one.
Please, add a bit more of information in the extended description.
What do you think about this description?
