Package: mmdebstrap Version: 1.5.7-3 Severity: normal X-Debbugs-Cc: [email protected]
Dear Maintainer, mmdebstrap-autopkgtest-build-qemu can be used to build Debian VMs, but it fails to build Ubuntu VMs. I have locally patched it until it worked. These three changes were needed: 1. The kernel package is called linux-image-generic instead of linux-image-amd64 on Ubuntu. 2. The symlinks vmlinuz and initrd.img do not exist in / but in /boot. 3. No initrd generator is installed. So mmdebstrap-autopkgtest-build-qemu should install dracut for Ubuntu >= 25.10 and initramfs-tools for Ubuntu <= 24.04. -- Benjamin Drung Debian & Ubuntu Developer
