Subject: debootstrap --print-debs prints extra output, breaking other tools

Date: Sun, 26 Jun 2005 17:43:32 +0100

Package: debootstrap
Version: 0.3.1
Severity: important

'debootstrap --print-debs sid <directory> <mirror>' prints the following
to stdout:

I: Retrieving Packages
I: Validating Packages

The extra status output at the start causes problems for other tools
that parse 'debootstrap --print-debs'; one such tool is debian-cd.
Please arrange not to display this status output when doing
--print-debs, or to print it to stderr.

Thanks,

This implements the latter, although making it do the former instead
would be trivial:
