because that is not how multistrap works, and it's not in multistrap,
see it's manpage regarding native vs. foreign mode.

x11-common.preinst should create /var/lib/x11.  Why doesn't that happen?

Bug#611271: x11-common fails to install during bootstrapping

2011-01-27 Thread Daniel Baumann
Package: x11-common
Version: 1:7.5+8
Severity: serious

Hi,

when bootstrapping systems and x11-common is selected, the postinst
fails since the parent directory of the xwrapper config roster doesn't
exist, and thus make it impossible to bootstrap squeeze.

I'll attach a trivial patch to fix this once i've recieved the
bugnumber. Please consider fixing this for squeeze.

Regards,
Daniel
