Package: pbuilder
Version: 0.226
Severity: important
pbuilder update has started failing when run from cron with the following
error:
tput: No value for $TERM and no -T specified
/usr/lib/pbuilder/pbuilder-modules: line 177: [: -ge: unary operator expected
The bug appears to be here:
term_supports_colors() {
if [ -z ${USECOLORS:-} ] || [ "$USECOLORS" = "auto" ]; then
[ $(tput colors) -ge 8 ] && USECOLORS=yes || USECOLORS=no
fi
}
Looks like tput colors returns an empty string when run with no controlling
terminal, which breaks this conditional.
