This weekend, I managed to build the Hasty debootstrap in my Debian partition, using standard Debian debootstrap and the script copied from the Hasty version of debootstrap. It all went smoothly, everything installed, and now everything's there and ready to go.

I'm also having problems, however. "apt-get" from within my new Ubuntu chroot doesn't work.

I update my package lists and then try to "apt-get install midbrowser", but it always fails because it claims that the package has a dependency and it isn't going to be installed.. Why isn't it going to be installed? Well, I followed things down the chain (midbrowser -> xulrunner-1.9 -> libgtk2.0-0 -> libcups2), only to discover that "libcups2" has no install candidate... Yikes!

So I'll try mix-and-match; adding Debian sid armel repositories to fill in the gaps...
