Comment 13 for bug 2054925

I confirmed that the resulting target dir of debootstrap in Jammy (with patch/MERGED_USR=no) and Mantic is the same, with a comparison of `ls -lR` (normalized for Month/Day/Time fields).

...

Test command for Jammy (patched) and Mantic:

# debootstrap --arch=amd64 --variant=minbase --keyring /usr/share/keyrings/ubuntu-archive-keyring.gpg noble /tmp/nobletest http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu

Dir listing for Jammy (patched) and Mantic:

deboostrap-jammy # ls -lR /tmp/nobletest/ > list.jammy
deboostrap-mantic # ls -lR /tmp/nobletest/ > list.mantic

Normalization and comparison:

$ sed -i 's/[A-Z][a-z][a-z] .[0-9] [0-9][0-9]:[0-9][0-9]/DATETIME/' list.jammy list.mantic
