Title:
  Feature request: support for pulling packages from -security and
  -updates

Status in debootstrap package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  It doesn't really make sense that when using debootstrap to create an
  Ubuntu <chroot|container|directory|installation|whatever>, old
  versions of packages will be installed, rather than the latest
  versions from the archives. The first thing that you'd need to do
  would be to immediately go and upgrade everything, which is just
  unnecessary duplication of downloading and installing. An Ubuntu
  installation (for example, Precise) created by the current version
  will be extremely insecure.
