The problem is that Debian do not use rpm, so the newvserver tools in the package do not support Debian at all. It was a lot easier to write a new tool based on debian debootstrap than to try to modify this. As far as I know, this is no longer a problem since util-vserver (development branch) support debian. > Further, newvserver could be enhance to create debian install from scratch. > For example, it could setup the configuration and call your newvserver.sh > script to complete the installation. > > Right ? No because debian is not rpm based.
