`mk-sbuild` on older Ubuntu versions like 22.04 are unable to build new Debian chroots

[Thomas Ward]

Sometimes, when we are working with both Ubuntu and Debian, we need to create a Debian chroot for build testing.

Unfortunately, mk-sbuild is UNABLE to create Debian chroots. Currently, the first error is that "/bin/true" is nonexistent (it's in `/usr/bin/true` now). Then, it fails trying to execute ldconfig, and a continual chain of issues.

It's possible this is a debootstrap problem, but one that probably needs rectified.

NOTE: I backported locally debootstrap 1.0.136ubuntu1 from Oracular to Jammy, and **it resolved the issue**. As a result I am certain this is a debootstrap issue.
