Package: sbuild Version: 0.85.0 Severity: important get_default_release.py has this:
for pkgfile, _ in d.get_candidate_ver(c["base-files"]).file_list: I dunno how python apt interface works, but this very line works in a wrong way when bookworm-proposed-updates is enabled in addition to stable. As far as I can see, the idea is to have one entry for every apt index file, in this case, it is stable, stable-proposed-updates, and local (locally installed packages). However, in reality this loop works just 2 times, which is stable-p-u and local, but not stable itself, - no matter if base-files is installed from stable-pu or stable. This is observed as a failing sbuild autopkgtest, for example here: https://ci.debian.net/packages/s/sbuild/stable/amd64/40753865/#L19899 causing the test to fail and marking unrelated packages (qemu in this case) to be marked as faulty. It's trivial to reproduce it locally with just a stable chroot (or stable plus stable-pu), - provided base-files is in stable-pu too, in addition to stable itself: debootstrap --variant=minbase --include=python3-apt /tmp/stable stable cp sbuild/debian/tests/get_default_release.py /tmp/stable/tmp chroot /tmp/stable /tmp/get_default_release.py # -- works echo 'deb http://deb.debian.org/debian proposed-updates main' >> /etc/apt/sources.list apt update /tmp/get_default_release.py # -- fails Apparently there should be some other way to find out which default debian release we're tracking. Thanks, /mjt
