--- Begin Message ---Package: apt Version: 2.2.4 Severity: minor On a system with bullseye and bullseye-backports, I wanted to source the latest vlc apt had anywhere (backports or not). That is, temporarily override any pinning. $ apt source -t/./ vlc # gives confusing error (see below) $ apt download -t/./ vlc # works as expected The expected behaviour is that --target-release works the same for "apt source" as it does for "apt download" (or "apt install"). 20:40 <juliank> twb: So source does not support regular expressions or glob patterns in -t, APT::Default-Release 20:40 <juliank> only exact release names 20:41 <juliank> twb: presumably nobody noticed that it did its own matching :) 20:41 <twb> OK. If that's known/expected behaviour, then it's not a bug 20:42 <juliank> i think it's a bug because it's an oversight and clashes with the release notes 20:42 <juliank> which suggested that default-release "/^bullseye(-security|-updates)$/" works as "bullseye" would have before; but it breaks source Here is full transcript for bullseye: bash5$ mmdebstrap bullseye /dev/null --customize-hook='chroot $1 apt download -t/./ vlc' --customize-hook='chroot $1 apt source -t/./ vlc' 'deb http://deb.debian.org/debian bullseye main' 'deb-src http://deb.debian.org/debian bullseye main' I: automatically chosen mode: unshare I: chroot architecture amd64 is equal to the host's architecture I: automatically chosen format: tar I: using /tmp/mmdebstrap.FcuegMKvYL as tempdir I: running apt-get update... done I: downloading packages with apt... done I: extracting archives... done I: installing essential packages... done I: downloading apt... done I: installing apt... done I: installing remaining packages inside the chroot... done done --> I: running --customize-hook in shell: sh -c 'chroot $1 apt download -t/./ vlc' exec /tmp/mmdebstrap.FcuegMKvYL --> Get:1 http://deb.debian.org/debian bullseye/main amd64 vlc amd64 3.0.16-1 [144 kB] Fetched 144 kB in 0s (1526 kB/s) W: Download is performed unsandboxed as root as file '//vlc_3.0.16-1_amd64.deb' couldn't be accessed by user '_apt'. - pkgAcquire::Run (13: Permission denied) --> I: running --customize-hook in shell: sh -c 'chroot $1 apt source -t/./ vlc' exec /tmp/mmdebstrap.FcuegMKvYL --> Reading package lists...
