Changes:
sbuild (0.62.0-1) unstable; urgency=low
.
* New release.
* debian/control:
- Build-Depend upon libexception-class-perl.
* sbuild:
- Resolvers:
+ 'apt' is now the default build dependency resolver. Users should
not see any significant changes compared with the old 'internal'
resolver. Please note that you may need to generate a GPG key
for the local archive created for dependency package
installation, if one does not already exist; see sbuild-update
(--keygen) for further details.
+ The 'internal' build dependency resolver is deprecated. It is
not recommended for future use, and will be removed once it is no
longer used by the buildd infrastructure. Please use the 'apt'
resolver as a drop-in replacement.
+ The 'aptitude' build dependency resolver will, unlike 'apt' and
'internal', consider alternative dependencies by default, rather
than only using the first alternative. This is intended to both
preserve backward compatibility, and make the 'aptitude'
resolver the preferred choice for more complex situations, such
as building for experimental.
+ The aptitude resolver can resolve complex dependencies, e.g.
A | B, where A is uninstallable now correctly falls back to B.
This is not the case for the internal or apt resolvers, which by
intent do not make use of alternatives (they use the first
alternative only. sbuild now has full support for resolving
alternatives, but this is not the default behaviour
(Closes: #403246). Please see #614807 for a proposed description
of autobuilder-imposed build dependency restrictions in Policy.
+ All build dependency resolvers run dpkg with --force-confold.
This means packages with modified conffiles in the chroot to not
cause build failure. This includes /etc/services and
/etc/protocols from netbase (Closes: #576508).
- Logging:
+ Long paths such as the chroot location and the build directory
inside the chroot are now filtered in the build log and replaced
with small, constant, abbreviations (Closes: #605763). This makes
the build logs comparable between builds with tools such as
diff(1).
+ Logging messages have been improved, and important messages are
now coloured when running interactively (does not affect log
files). Errors, warnings and informational messages are coloured
red, yellow and green, respectively. Build status is coloured
green for success and red for all failure conditions.
+ Build log mails are now compressed and mailed in MIME format by
default, together with a copy of the .changes file. The old
behaviour (plain mailing of uncompressed logs) may be restored by
setting $mime_build_log_mails=0 in the configuration, and
compression may also be disabled in the MIME mails by setting
$compress_build_log_mails=0. Note that it is no longer possible
to send compressed log mails unless MIME mailing is enabled.
Thanks to Philipp Kern for implementing this.
- Error handling:
+ In order to handle errors more robustly, the build code now has
initial support for exception handling. Normal operation will
not be affected, but fatal errors may be logged in a different
order than seen previously. Fatal errors will now be seen at the
end of the build log, which should make it easier to spot
problems.
+ sbuild now always cleans up fully when receiving a termination
signal such as SIGINT or SIGTERM. Note that you may need to wait
while the cleanup actions are performed, or the current task is
completed prior to initiating cleanup. When running
interactively, hitting Ctrl-C will sent SIGINT to the entire
process group; doing this while apt-get or aptitude are running
will potentially leave dpkg in an inconsistent state, so aborting
at this point is not recommended. Sending a SIGTERM to the
sbuild process will always work cleanly.
- General:
+ sbuild now performs an apt dist-upgrade at the start of each
build by default, rather than an upgrade. This is to reduce the
amount of manual administration required to keep chroots up to
date, and is not much more risky than upgrade in this context.
+ A new option, --keep-session, has been added (Closes: #609658).
This prevents the automatic removal of session-managed snapshot
chroots. Previously, snapshots would not be deleted if purging
of the build directory or build dependencies was disabled, but
this was not always desirable, hence it is now configurable
separately.
+ Internally, building and other actions in the chroot are
performed by the 'sbuild' system user, where previously the user
invoking sbuild would be used instead. The aim of this change is
to separate privileges to increase security and reduce the chance
of accidental or deliberate tampering of the build environment.
While the latter is not addressed by these changes, this will be
taken care of during future architectural changes.
+ The sbuild package build directory created inside the chroot now
has a reduced name length. It's now /build/packagename-XXXXXX
where XXXXXX are random characters. This helps reduce the chance
of hitting path length restrictions on some architectures,
particularly when using sockets.
* wanna-build:
- The wanna-build database has been removed entirely. This part of
the sbuild package was not used, and was not maintained for some
time. Users wishing to use wanna-build should investigate the
version in the wanna-build.git repository used by the Debian
autobuilding infrastructure. This version is actively maintained
and in continual use.
* sbuild.conf:
- sbuild.conf is now automatically generated from the help text and
defaults in the source code. This means that the examples will
always be syntactically correct, the help text will always be
current, and the defaults will always match the defaults in the
source code (Closes: #609932, #610995).
- Non-scalar (or reference) types are deprecated in sbuild.conf.
This is because it is not possible to tell the difference between
an empty and an undefined value. Values using array or hash
types should use the equivalent array reference or hash
reference, which have been supported for some time. The old
style array and hash values will remain supported for now, but
will be removed in a future release.
* buildd.conf:
- Automatically generated like sbuild.conf. As for sbuild.conf,
non-scalar types are deprecated.
* sbuild.conf.5:
- All of the allowed values in sbuild.conf are now documented in a
new sbuild.conf(5) manual page. Like sbuild.conf, this is
entirely generated from the source code, so will always match the
defaults for the same sbuild version.
* buildd.conf.5:
- New manual page. Like sbuild.conf(5), this documents all allowed
values.
