Bug description:
  [Impact]

  All users of bdebstrap/mmdebstrap are affected.

  [Test Plan]

  $ cat test.yaml
  ---
  name: test
  mmdebstrap:
    suite: jammy
    target: root.squashfs
    variant: minbase
  $ bdebstrap -c test.yaml
  I: automatically chosen mode: unshare
  I: chroot architecture amd64 is equal to the host's architecture
  sh: 48: /usr/share/debootstrap/scripts/gutsy: EXTRACTOR_OVERRIDE: parameter not set
  Can't exec "tar2sqfs": No such file or directory at /usr/bin/mmdebstrap line 5178.
  E: cannot exec tar2sqfs --version: No such file or directory
  E: failed to start tar2sqfs --version
  2022-05-06 10:22:50,438 bdebstrap ERROR: mmdebstrap failed with exit code 2. See above for details.

  This test shuold produce a root.squashfs without a failure.

  [Where problems could occur]
  Worst case scenario is that deboostrap breaks, but this one-line fix is so trivial that I fail to come up with possible problem (except for other bugs that only appear when upgrading the package).
