Package: pbuilder Version: 0.229 Severity: normal Since a recent upload, pbuilder copies and extracts the source package in the chroot before invoking the satisfydepends script. With the combination of pbuilder-satisfydepends-classic and --preserve-buildplace, this breaks things because the chroot "cache directory" is no longer left in its initial (clean) state.
This especially breaks things with my setup, which contains a post-unpack hook which relies on there being exactly one source package in /build. (The setup, which was the original use case I had in mind in implementing --preserve-buildplace in the first place, is a script to maintain a "dogfooding" local mirror of bootstrapped packages, and run a loop that goes through all the packages that haven't been bootstrapped so far trying to build them all. So, the --preserve-buildplace is essential to get any kind of speed when most of the packages don't yet have satisfiable Build-Depends from the bootstrapped set.) (It would also be nice if pbuilder-satisfydepends-apt would support --preserve-buildplace by returning exit code 2 if "apt-get -s build-dep" fails. That would be so much faster than pbuilder-satisfydepends-classic.) -- Daniel Schepler
