[buildd-tools-devel] Bug#709864: sbuild-createchroot does not observe the --foreign flag.

[Likai Liu]

Package: sbuild
Version: 0.63.2-1.1
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

sbuild-createchroot does not appear to observe the --foreign flag.  As a 
result, when cross-compiling, debootstrap ended with the following error:

chroot: failed to run command `mount': Exec format error

The solution is to change line 96 of /usr/sbin/sbuild-createchroot like 
this:

-            $self->set_conf('FOREIGN', 0);
+            $self->set_conf('FOREIGN', 1);
