Commits on May 7, 2021

  1. debootstrap: Add version 1.0.124 

    This allows to easily install Debian or Ubuntu into a directory, and
later on into a VM image avoiding using the installer images.

    sudo debootstrap --arch=amd64 sid /scratch/local2/debian-sid

For Ubuntu, get the archive keyring from somewhere
(`/usr/share/keyrings/` on some installation or the WWW), and pass it:

    sudo debootstrap --arch=amd64 --keyring /scratch/tmp/ubuntu-archive-keyring.gpg hirsute /scratch/local2/ubuntu-hirsute

You can also use systemd-nspawn or chroot to work in these directories.

  2. fakechroot: Add version 2.20.1 plus some patches 

    [Web site][https://github.com/dex4er/fakechroot]

It does not build with glibc 2.33, so use [merge/pull request 85 (glibc
2.33+ compatibility)](https://github.com/dex4er/fakechroot/pull/85)
  fixing this.

    $ chroot / whoami
    chroot: cannot change root directory to '/': Operation not permitted
    $ fakechroot chroot / whoami
    pmenzel
    $ fakechroot fakeroot chroot / whoami
    root

It’s *not* working yet with debootstrap, fakechroot, fakeroot, as there
are incompatibilies between the glibc versions. Debian sid/unstable
still has glibc 2.31 and Ubuntu 21.04 (Hirsute) also seems to be
incompatible.

    $ fakechroot fakeroot chroot "/scratch/local2/ubuntu-hirsute" /bin/true
    fakechroot: bindtextdomain: bindtextdomain: invalid mode for dlopen():
    Invalid argument
