Subject: debootstrap sid broken since libc-bin became priority optional

Date: Tue, 23 Jan 2018 20:47:56 +0100

Package: ftp.debian.org
Severity: important

debootstrap sid fails with:

W: Failure trying to run: chroot $TARGET /sbin/ldconfig
W: See $TARGET/debootstrap/debootstrap.log for details

Notably, it doesn't try to install libc-bin and /sbin/ldconfig is
missing.

I guess something went wrong in #846982 and I think Aurelien said that
exactly this would happen:
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=846982#152

Please unbreak debootstrap.
