 Description: multiple repository bootstrap based on apt
- debootstrap replacement with multiple repository support
+ A debootstrap replacement with multiple repository support,
  using apt to handle all dependency issues and conflicts.
  .
- Includes support for foreign architecture multistraps that need
- only minimal configuration on the final device. Supports cleaning
- up the generated bootstrap filesystem to remove downloaded packages
- and hooks to modify the files in the bootstrap filesystem after
- the packages have been unpacked but before being configured.
+ Multistrap includes support for foreign architecture multistraps
+ that need  only minimal configuration on the final device. Also
+ supports cleaning  up the generated bootstrap filesystem to

  .
  Unlike debootstrap, multistrap relies on working versions of
  dpkg and apt outside the final filesystem.
