+Ok, so I've tried to use this to build a Chroot (a reasonable starting point for building containers), using the following program:
+
+ module Main
+ ( main
+ ) where
+
+ import Propellor
+ import Propellor.Engine
+ import Propellor.Property.DiskImage
+ import qualified Propellor.Property.Apt as Apt
+ import qualified Propellor.Property.User as User
+ import Propellor.Property.Chroot
+
+ main :: IO ()
+ main = mainProperties $ host \"whatever\" $ props
+ & provisioned (mychroot \"out\")
+ where
+ mychroot d = debootstrapped mempty d $ props
+ & osDebian Unstable X86_64
+ & Apt.installed [\"linux-image-amd64\"]
+ & User.hasPassword (User \"root\")
+ & User.accountFor (User \"demo\")
+ & User.hasPassword (User \"demo\")
+
+It seems that \"debootstrap\" finishes:
+
+ I: Configuring apt-transport-https...
+ I: Configuring tasksel...
+ I: Configuring tasksel-data...
+ I: Configuring libc-bin...
+ I: Configuring systemd...
+ I: Configuring ca-certificates...
+ I: Base system installed successfully.
+
+But fails immediately afterwards:
+
+ ldd: /usr/local/propellor/propellor: No such file or directory
+ ** warning: user error (ldd [\"/usr/local/propellor/propellor\"] exited 1)
+ whatever chroot out exists ... failed
+ whatever overall ... failed
+
+(I should probably have used a different hostname than \"whatever\", but... whatever :).)
+
+So it seems that the chroot support still expects propellor to be installed on the host system?
+
+I should mention that I've done an extremely small patch to Propellor locally, just to the ChrootBootstrapper instance for ArchLinux to allow it to call debootstrap on Arch Linux -- it seems to exist as a package these days, not sure if it did when that Propellor code was written. Anyway...
