Hi ports people,

I'm not exactly sure what happened with debian-ports@ (I think there
were some planned changes but I don't remember the outcome), so I'm
explicitly sending this to bsd/hurd lists since I suspect the linux
ports are less likely to be affected by this.

We have a bug report with a patch by Marco against debootstrap (see
attachment), which changes how devices are generated; I can't really
tell how much this might affect all of you (especially with debootstrap
being arch:all, and not intended to only be used from a Debian system),
so I thought I'd send a heads-up first. You may want to look at other
mails (esp. from Marco) in the bug log for more background:
  https://bugs.debian.org/571136

Please keep the bug report and Marco in copy of your replies.

Mraw,
KiBi.
