I was seeing a problem that looks to me like "debootstrap installs, but the result is in an inproper state" (which also happens, for example, if I debootstrap with --include=file-rc --exclude=sysv-rc,insserv since it insists on still including sysv-rc, both *rc will be broken), followed by "pbuilder calls apt, apt borks on that inconsistent state". >Unless someone can show something debootstrap did that caused the later >problem, it's not appropriate to reassign this bug to debootstrap. Okay, I did a too-quick shot. My apologies. >Also, perl-modules is only priority standard, so debootstrap will not >even install it. A five-minute grep-dctrl’ing shows that: Package: libtext-iconv-perl Source: libtext-iconv-perl (1.7-4) Version: 1.7-4+b1 Architecture: m68k Maintainer: Anibal Monsalve Salazar <[email protected]> Installed-Size: 82 Depends: libc6 (>= 2.1.3), perl (>= 5.14.2-3), perlapi-5.14.2 […] SHA256: 7912bcc19dcf5db9e8021ff096791470b3aceec359952a6eab227dd4833635b3 Section: perl Priority: required Homepage: http://search.cpan.org/search?module=Text::Iconv […] So, there is a Priority: required package depending on perl (standard), which in turn: Package: perl Version: 5.14.2-5 Architecture: m68k Maintainer: Niko Tyni <[email protected]> Installed-Size: 11956 Depends: perl-base (= 5.14.2-5), perl-modules (>= 5.14.2-5), libbz2-1.0, libc6 (>= 2.4), libdb5.1, libgdbm3 (>= […] So yes, debootstrap will clearly pull in perl-modules due to this, override disparity I suppose. Who ensures the Priority orders, and when? bye, //mirabilos PS: Yes, I probably should report that sysv-rc/file-rc bug. I need to first see to which distributions it applies, I remember seeing it on lenny but maybe not later ones. -- “Having a smoking section in a restaurant is like having a peeing section in a swimming pool.” -- Edward Burr -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
