I’ve had nothing but trouble with it, in some cases even overwriting/appending the /etc/pbuilderrc after I had replaced it with my own¹. Use deb.debian.org (or, for derivatives, the relevant default mirror of theirs) if no pbuilderrc is configured. Ideally, let debootstrap use its default if no pbuilderrc. ① http://cvs.mirbsd.de/contrib/hosted/tg/deb/pbuilderrc?rev=HEAD bye, //mirabilos -- you introduced a merge commit│ % g rebase -i HEAD^^ sorry, no idea and rebasing just fscked │ Segmentation should have cloned into a clean repo │ fault (core dumped) if I rebase that now, it's really ugh │ wuahh
Bug#1038689: pbuilder: creates /etc/pbuilderrc with invalid (debug repo) MIRRORSITE -- does not parse *.sources files
Package: pbuilder Version: 0.231 I am trying to create a pbuilder on today's amd64 cloud image. `pbuilder --create --debug` eventually fails with | + debootstrap --include=apt --cache-dir=/var/cache/pbuilder/aptcache/ --variant=buildd --force-check-gpg bookworm /var/cache/pbuilder/build/26079 http://debug.mirrors.debian.org/debian-debug/ | E: Failed getting release file http://debug.mirrors.debian.org/debian-debug/dists/bookworm/Release This is a wrong URL -- the suite is called "bookworm-debug", i.e. it should be http://debug.mirrors.debian.org/debian-debug/dists/bookworm-debug/Release (which does exist). My only customization is | # cat ~/.pbuilderrc | DISTRIBUTION=bookworm | PBUILDERSATISFYDEPENDSCMD=true /etc/pbuilderrc has > MIRRORSITE=http://debug.mirrors.debian.org/debian-debug/ which is wrong -- this ought to be a mirror for the main repo, not for the debug one. /usr/share/pbuilder/pbuilderrc certainly has "MIRRORSITE=http://deb.debian.org/debian; as default. So, something on "apt install pbuilder" causes /etc/pbuilderrc to be created like the above. So the auto-detection goes wrong. /etc/apt/sources.list is empty, the only sources that I have is the default one: | # cat /etc/apt/sources.list.d/debian.sources | Types: deb deb-src | URIs: mirror+file:///etc/apt/mirrors/debian.list | Suites: bookworm bookworm-updates bookworm-backports | Components: main | | Types: deb deb-src | URIs: mirror+file:///etc/apt/mirrors/debian-security.list | Suites: bookworm-security | Components: main and my custom one: # cat /etc/apt/sources.list.d/dbgsym.list deb http://debug.mirrors.debian.org/debian-debug/ bookworm-debug main I tried to rename dbgsym.list to debug.list (so that it sorts after "debian.sources"), and purging/reinstalling pbuilder still creates a wrong MIRRORSITE. When I remove dbgsym.list entirely, installing pbuilder brings up a debconf prompt about "Default mirror not found". So it smells like pbuilder's auto-detection cannot parse the (not-so-)new style *.sources files? Thanks, Martin
