Subject: schroot --begin-session into an empty chroot doesn't work
Date: Tue, 26 Apr 2011 12:31:21 +0200
Package: schroot
Version: 1.4.21-1+b1
Severity: wishlist

Hi,

when I invoke schroot --begin-session --chroot=foo on an empty chroot
(to debootstrap into the schroot later), 20copyfiles fails because it
tries to copy files into non-existent directories.

Would it be possible to have 20copyfiles and other scripts create
non-existent directories, or to not try to copy files into
non-existing directories?

Greetings
Marc

That shouldn't be a problem; we can just add a "mkdir -p" if the
destination directory is absent.
