Hello everybody, this bug seems due to the changes in sudo, i.e. it does not retain the $HOME env var:
$ sudo env | grep ^HOME HOME=/root forcing the setting of $HOME makes cowbuilder honor ~/.pbuilderrc again (see later). This is tricky, and thus should be fixed in cowbuilder itself. I have BINDMOUNTS="/deb/local" in my .pbuilderrc, and this is what happens: $ sudo cowbuilder --update [..] W: Failed to fetch file:/deb/local/./Packages File not found [..] $ $ sudo HOME=/home/david cowbuilder --update [..] Ign file: ./ InRelease Get:1 file: ./ Release.gpg [72 B] Get:2 file: ./ Release [712 B] [..] i.e. it finds my bindmount. Kindly, David -- . ''`.
