Package: autopkgtest
Version: 5.28
Severity: wishlist
Dear Maintainer,
Hi while setting up a qemu test image on a fairly recently configured
machine I tried running autopkgtest-build-qemu, and it helpfully told me
that it needed vmdb to run.
However shortly thereafter it crashed with
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/bin/autopkgtest-build-qemu", line 596, in <module>
BuildQemu().run()
File "/usr/bin/autopkgtest-build-qemu", line 347, in run
subprocess.check_call(argv)
File "/usr/lib/python3.11/subprocess.py", line 408, in check_call
retcode = call(*popenargs, **kwargs)
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

raise child_exception_type(errno_num, err_msg, err_filename)
FileNotFoundError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: 'fakemachine'
I figured out that it needs the fakemachine package, but it might be
nice if the command suggested the tool was needed like it does with vmdb
Thank you,
Diane
