[Bug 1068707] Please test proposed package

[Colin Watson]

Hello Barry, or anyone else affected,

Accepted debootstrap into precise-proposed. The package will build now
and be available at
http://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/debootstrap/1.0.39ubuntu0.2 in a few
hours, and then in the -proposed repository.

Please help us by testing this new package.  See
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation how to
enable and use -proposed.  Your feedback will aid us getting this update
out to other Ubuntu users.

If this package fixes the bug for you, please change the bug tag from
verification-needed to verification-done.  If it does not, change the
tag to verification-failed.  In either case, details of your testing
will help us make a better decision.

Further information regarding the verification process can be found at
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/PerformingSRUVerification .  Thank you in
advance!

Bug description:
  [ Description ]

  Can't debootstrap raring on quantal because there is no script.

  [ Test case ]

  (quantal-amd64)root at iota:/home/laney/temp# debootstrap raring .
  E: No such script: /usr/share/debootstrap/scripts/raring
  # install the new package
  (quantal-amd64)root at iota:/home/laney/temp# dpkg -i debootstrap_1.0.42ubuntu0.1_all.deb
  (Reading database ... 11988 files and directories currently installed.)
  Preparing to replace debootstrap 1.0.42 (using debootstrap_1.0.42ubuntu0.1_all.deb) ...
  Unpacking replacement debootstrap ...
  Setting up debootstrap (1.0.42ubuntu0.1) ...
  (quantal-amd64)root at iota:/home/laney/temp# debootstrap raring foo
  I: Retrieving InRelease

  [ Regression potential ]

  It could be that the existing script doesn't work for raring.

  [ Original description ]

  Well, it's time for the usual post-release/next-release fiddling.

  Quantal's debootstrap needs to add scripts/raring (13.04) as a symlink
  to gutsy in order to support raring chroots on 12.10.
