package: apt-utils version: 0.8.8 severity: important apt-ftparchive seems to fail when run within a fakechroot. This leads to failures when building d-i within a fakechroot. The following should reproduce the issue:
$ export PATH=/sbin:/usr/sbin:/usr/local/sbin:$PATH $ fakeroot fakechroot debootstrap --variant=fakechroot sid ./fake-chroot http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian [...] $ fakeroot fakechroot chroot ./fake-chroot/ apt-get source hello [...] $ fakeroot fakechroot chroot ./fake-chroot/ apt-ftparchive sources / E: Failed to resolve / - realpath (22: Invalid argument) The following demonstrates that the same commands succeeding in a real root chroot: $ sudo debootstrap sid ./root-chroot http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian [...] $ sudo chroot ./root-chroot/ apt-get source hello [...] $ sudo chroot ./root-chroot/ apt-ftparchive sources / Package: hello Binary: hello Version: 2.6-1 [...] Thanks for looking into this.
