We don't have user namespaces, cannot mount, cannot do kpartx and using guestfish fails for an unknown reason which leads to the resulting disk image being corrupted. Fixing the guestfish bug is tricky because the error only occurs on Debian CI and not locally, so I prepared another autopkgtest for libguestfs-tools only to see that libguestfs-tools cannot even be built on salsa CI because the artifacts are too large: https://salsa.debian.org/salsa/support/issues/175 Since I cannot test on ci.debian.net myself, I filed a bug with patch to src:libguestfs and we will see whether that works or not: https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=944729 Since all kinds of other operations are not permitted on salsa CI, using libguestfs is as far as I know the only way to create a dropbear-initramfs test which creates the disk image by itself instead of downloading it from elsewhere. This I'm blocking this bug by the libguestfs bug. If we can make the latter work, then I can continue working on this one. Thanks! cheers, josch
