Why would the debootstrap-udeb package be required? debootstrap-udeb is a special package that's only usable within the installer; normal systems should use debootstrap. What problems did you encounter trying to use debootstrap?

I've fixed the second one to use &releasename;. However, the central entity definitions for the manual still have the release name set to "etch". Frans (or anyone), do you know if this is intentional?

Thanks,
