the process works fine. And I don't think you are telling the truth not being
able to test this. You should be able to set up an oneiric chroot, or an oneiric
virtual machine to test this. Yes, it does cost time, including for yourself.
Fine if you don't want to spend this time, but then please don't blame others
doing the same as you.

If you do have questions regarding the chroot approach, please see
