Bug Description

Binary package hint: bash

As it stands, when debootstrapping after this upload /bin/sh doesn't end up in the debootstrap chroot causing the chroot to fail to build since no /bin/sh exists. I believe this is because of the change we imported from Debian:

* Stop shipping the sh and sh(1) symlinks. Closes: #545103.
