Package: live-build Version: 1:20191221 Owner: [email protected] there are notable issues with the way udebs are handled in the installer code: - in rare but possible scenarios it could be possible for both a parent and derived copy of a package to end up included, due to the lazy way things are handled. - the bundling of parent and derived sets are simply bundled together in a single list and then an attempt is made to download from the derived mirror, falling back to the parent on failure, which leads to a lot of 404 errors, as pointed out by an log message that gets printed out to advise users to not worry about them.
it is not hard and is desirable for the necessary robustness to be implemented here such that any packages that are being obtained from the derived source are excluded from being obtained from the parent; so that these two lists are kept separate and udebs in each lists obtained from the actual correct location; and that files only be taken from the cache when they really are supposed to be. patches to be submitted via salsa soon
