Package: debci
Version: 3.14
Severity: normal
User: [email protected]
Usertags: origin-kali
Dear Maintainer,
Salsa CI just started using debci 3.14, and the creation of the
autopkgtest LXC testbeds for buster/stretch failed with this error
message:
```
Error: amd64/buster not available on mirror http://deb.debian.org/debian
```
Cf. https://salsa.debian.org/salsa-ci-team/autopkgtest-lxc/-/jobs/9186708
For those two suites, we set the environment variable `debci_mirror` to
http://archive.debian.org/debian, so the error message indicates that
this environment variable is not honored anymore.
Looking at the changes in debci 3.14, I guess it's due to the move to
using sudo to run autopkgtest-build-lxc.
I could fix the issue with:
```
--- a/backends/lxc/create-testbed
+++ b/backends/lxc/create-testbed
@@ -54,4 +54,4 @@ set -- "$debci_distro" "$debci_suite" "${debci_arch:?}"
"$script"
if [ -n "${debci_keyring:-}" ]; then
set -- --keyring "$debci_keyring" "$@"
fi
-sudo autopkgtest-build-lxc "$@"
+sudo -E autopkgtest-build-lxc "$@"
```
That's maybe not the right fix, I'm not familiar enough with debci to
tell.
Best,
Arnaud
