[Buildd-tools-devel] Bug#377589: dchroot doesn't allow the use of options to the command it runs

[Andrew Chittenden]

Package: dchroot
Version: 0.99.2-2
Severity: normal


I used to be able to use "dchroot -c ia32-unstable -- bash --login". Now
it says:

# dchroot -c ia32-unstable -- bash --login
E: Only one command may be specified
I: Run "dchroot --help" to list usage example and all available options
# 

And there doesn't seem to be a way of doing this (that I've tried).
