My command was:
mmdebstrap --variant=required stretch test1.tar
file:///media/richard/dvds/dvd1.iso
The error received was:

That was resolved by installing "fakechroot". I had read the man page as
implying the use of a tar file did not require it.
That left me with the problem of telling the instance of apt being run
internally by mmdebstrap that dvd1.iso is trusted. I unsuccessfully
tried using the distribution DVD itself.
What is the proper syntax to use dvd1.iso {preferred} or DVD in drive
{last resort} as my repository?
