Thanks.  I just have a couple of further questions.

1) This patch installs everything into the debian directory.  However,
   is /etc/bash_completion.d Debian-specific, or is this common to all
   distributions using bash?

   If so, I could distribute it along with the upstream files in
   bin/schroot.

2) Would it be OK to modify this for the dchroot and dchroot-dsa
   commands?  These are just alternate forms of schroot, with a
   slightly altered command-line syntax (for compatibility with older
   programs).

BTW, I changed the licence on everything to GPLv3 in the git
repository last week, so it can now go in a GPLv3 or above.
