** Description changed: - debootstrap learnt about Debian buster (and, incidentally, bullseye) in 1.0.85, first present in artful. - We want that in xenial too. + [Impact] + * people can't easily debootstrap the current debian testing (buster) with the tools available in Ubuntu's stable + + [Test case] + * `debootstrap buster foo` --> fail with a "suite buster not known message" + + [Regression Potential] + * really, none. + + [Other Info] + * this kind of change is routinely done in debootstrap, just adding support + for new releases + * my proposed package also add support for "bullseye", i.e. buster+1, even if it will be released in who knows how many years… That's just being + pro-active, most probably xenial will still be supported when bullseye will be interesting.
