--- Begin Message ---Package: debootstrap Version: 1.0.81 Severity: normal I am using debootstrap in my own minimal system bootstrapper, and am making use of the progress information reported to FH 3 as enabled by the --debian-installer command-line flag. Unfortunately, using this flag causes the behaviour of debootstrap to change, specifically in its handling of InRelease / Release files. During normal operation, debootstrap will first attempt to fetch an InRelease file from the repository; if this is unavailable, i.e. the fetch fails with 404, then debootstrap will normally fall back to fetching a Release file instead. Indeed, this is the behaviour of debootstrap if --debian-installer is not passed on the command-line. debootstrap uses the wgetprogress() function to fetch these URLs. It reads: wgetprogress () { [ ! "$VERBOSE" ] && QSWITCH="-q" local ret=0 if [ "$USE_DEBIANINSTALLER_INTERACTION" ] && [ "$PROGRESS_NEXT" ]; then wget "$@" 2>&1 >/dev/null | $PKGDETAILS "WGET%" $PROGRESS_NOW $PROGRESS_NEXT $PROGRESS_END >&3 ret=$? else wget $QSWITCH "$@" ret=$? fi return $ret } When the --debian-installer command-line flag is set, the first path of the if branch will be taken - running the output of wget through a pipe, so that the $PKGDETAILS command can be used to parse progress information provided by wget and report it to FH 3 in a format usable by debian-installer. However, if the URL passed to wget returns 404, then while the wget command will fail, the $PKGDETAILS command, and thus the pipeline as a whole, does not, and the wgetprocess () function thus erroneously returns success. As a consequence, debootstrap does not fall back to fetching and using a Release file as it should in this case, and the bootstrapping attempt as a whole fails. Because this is a POSIX shell-script, I don't believe there is a straightforward mechanism to fetch the exit status of the wget command when it is part of a pipeline. (See: http://cfajohnson.com/shell/cus-faq-2.html#Q11). It might be possible to enhance the code invoked by $PKGDETAILS to return a fatal exit status if it does not definitely see a successful file retrieval? A more direct work-around is to modify this function to unconditionally use the second code path that does not attempt to invoke wget as part of a pipeline. However, this does mean that you lose out on intra-file download progress reporting. -- System Information: Debian Release: stretch/sid APT prefers stable-updates APT policy: (500, 'stable-updates'), (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'stable'), (500, 'oldstable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 Kernel: Linux 4.6.0-1-amd64 (SMP w/8 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_GB.utf8, LC_CTYPE=en_GB.utf8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) Versions of packages debootstrap depends on: ii wget 1.18-1 Versions of packages debootstrap recommends: ii debian-archive-keyring 2014.3 ii gnupg 1.4.20-6 debootstrap suggests no packages. -- no debconf information
