Following finding the cause of this failure, I'd like to propose
the following patch (attached)  to correct it.  This is also in
git; the last five commits on the schroot-lenny branch:

http://git.debian.org/?p=buildd-tools/schroot.git;a=shortlog;h=refs/heads/schroot-lenny

This is a new "upstream" 1.2.2 release, with a corresponding
1.2.2-1 version for upload to unstable.

http://www.codelibre.net/~rleigh/schroot_1.2.2-1.dsc
http://www.codelibre.net/~rleigh/schroot_1.2.2-1.diff.gz
http://www.codelibre.net/~rleigh/schroot_1.2.2.orig.tar.gz

Peter, please could you build and test these to confirm that it's
fixed for you?

Stable release managers: I would like to upload the exact same
package to stable with a version of 1.2.2-1~lenny1 (or whatever
number is most appropriate for you).  This will fix the current
breakage on Alpha systems.

These changes will be forward-ported to the current master branch
as well.


Thanks,
Roger
