Package: debootstrap Version: 1.0.62 Severity: normal Dear Maintainer,
debootstrap fails if there are spaces in the $PWD directory. On my machine the debootstrap versions 1.0.60 and 1.0.61 also fail. In addition, the error also appears on a fresh jessie install. Bug nr #586158 (debootstrap fails if the directory contains a space) also fails with spaces in the directory, but observes other issues. Shell output of failing call to debootstrap (the command finishes sucessfully when executed in the directory "/home/mweigand/test_debootstrap"). --------------------------------------------------------------------- root@pidwig:/home/mweigand/test debootstrap# debootstrap jessie jessie_base I: Retrieving Release I: Retrieving Release.gpg I: Checking Release signature I: Valid Release signature (key id A1BD8E9D78F7FE5C3E65D8AF8B48AD6246925553) root@pidwig:/home/mweigand/test debootstrap# ls jessie_base/ debootstrap/ var/ root@pidwig:/home/mweigand/test debootstrap# cat jessie_base/debootstrap/debootstrap.log gpgv: Signature made Mon Sep 22 04:48:17 2014 CEST using RSA key ID 46925553 gpgv: Good signature from "Debian Archive Automatic Signing Key (7.0/wheezy) <ftpmas...@debian.org>" sed: can't read /home/mweigand/test: No such file or directory --------------------------------------------------------------------- As far as I investigated, the error is produced in the call to 'download_indices' (/usr/sbin/debootstrap, line 559), calling the function defined in /usr/share/debootstrap/functions (line 423).
