The attached patch includes a fix so that debootstrap can be run in a
single patch. Currently, this fails:
debootstrap --arch=amd64 buster $(mktemp -d) http://deb.debian.org/debian
With this in the log:

The workaround documented in the package description is to use
--foreign-arch and then follow up with a chroot call into to the newly
created chroot and finish up running /debootstrap/debootstrap, but this
fails for other reasons as well (/bin/sh in /debootstrap/debootstrap is
set to /gnu/store.../bin/sh which isn't present in the Debian
chroot)... and is a bit cumbersome for the end-user.
I *think* the best fix for this is to fix the hard-coded PATH in several
places places to also include $PATH, which I've proposed upstream:
The attached patch approximates the proposed upstream patch for guix,
and works for me so you can do a single call to debootstrap without the
complicated chroot /debootstrap/debootstrap PATH-setting dance.
live well,
