[Bug 64032] Re: rpmstrap using /bin/sh when it should use /bin/bash
It occurred to me to check if there are any similar tools to rpmstrap, but which are still actively supported upstream, and I quickly found mach: http://thomas.apestaart.org/projects/mach/ This covers most of the distributions which rpmstrap does, and a few others. The main comparative omission seem to be SuSE 10.0. And it's packaged for Ubuntu already: http://packages.ubuntu.com/gutsy/admin/mach The distro list in the description seems to be a little out of date - look at the list of files to see an up-to-date list. I've not actually tried mach out yet, but assuming it works as advertised it would probably be more productive to direct effort to fixing any shortcomings mach has compared to rpmstrap. -- rpmstrap using /bin/sh when it should use /bin/bash https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/64032 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Looking at your log, some of the RPM URLs are no longer valid. I suspect if you look at the downloaded RPM files, some probably actually contain HTML 404 pages, or perhaps are just zero size. I'll try one of the newer supported distros (suse10.0) and see if that works, but it looks like the script needs adjusting for current download locations for at least some of the distros (and updating with newer distros ideally). -- rpmstrap using /bin/sh when it should use /bin/bash https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/64032 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 64032] Re: rpmstrap using /bin/sh when it should use /bin/bash
I think dead is overstating the case. The original author is no longer interested in maintaining rpmstrap, and it would certainly benefit from updating to support newer RPM-based distros, but that doesn't mean that someone else can't take on the role of maintainer. The page Cesare linked to indicates the original author would welcome someone doing so. I already have too many things on my plate to commit to taking over maintenance myself, but I would find being able to easily set up chroot for different distros useful, so if someone else does so, I should at least be able to test and provide the occasional patch. But I think this is all orthogonal to this bug - the proposed update fixes the problem that this bug is about, and the rpmstrap package is now useful again, albeit for bootstrapping rather old releases on x86 only. -- rpmstrap using /bin/sh when it should use /bin/bash https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/64032 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 64032] Re: rpmstrap using /bin/sh when it should use /bin/bash
Steve: there's a debdiff in comment 6.

Just used it in feisty beta and there the problem still persists. 0.5.2-2 is the version installed there.

robos, I'm afraid my patch didn't/won't make it into Feisty. You can apt-get source and apply the debdiff if you like, although it's probably easier just to edit the script in the way Olly describes above. -- rpmstrap using /bin/sh when it should use /bin/bash https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/64032 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

OK, here's a debdiff. I've only altered the main script; there are several other scripts in the package using #!/bin/sh, but I've left them alone for now ** Attachment added: one-line change, plus lots of crud generated by yada http://librarian.launchpad.net/7126955/bash.debdiff -- rpmstrap using /bin/sh when it should use /bin/bash https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/64032 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 64032] Re: rpmstrap using /bin/sh when it should use /bin/bash
This is trivial to fix, but first I'd like to get some upstream input on whether making the change is likely to break anything else. Please could (any of) you give some more information on exactly what breaks with the existing package? -- rpmstrap using /bin/sh when it should use /bin/bash https://launchpad.net/bugs/64032 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 64032] Re: rpmstrap using /bin/sh when it should use /bin/bash
Indeed - it's just fallout from Ubuntu edgy making /bin/sh invoke dash
rather than bash. Linux distros have traditionally always used bash,
and coders have either just assumed that would always be true, or
accidentally used bash extensions without realising they weren't
portable (because they worked fine when the script was tested on Linux).
(Rereading that, it sounds a bit negative about /bin/sh being dash - on
the contrary I think it's an excellent move - in the long term it'll
help make Free Software more portable, and the short term pain can
easily be worked around by fixing the #! line to use bash...)
The first bashism seems to be:
PROGNAME=${0##*/}
It seems better not to diverge too much from upstream, so I think just
changing the interpreter in the #! line is a better fix than trying to
eliminate all the bashisms.
It would be good to get this fixed - the fix is low risk (since /bin/sh
used to *BE* /bin/bash) and it clearly doesn't work at all right now so
it would be hard to make things worse...

I've just run into this too, and can also confirm that using bash instead seems to allow rpmstrap to work correctly (I made a copy earlier on my path than /usr/bin and changed the #! line to #!/bin/bash). -- rpmstrap using /bin/sh when it should use /bin/bash https://launchpad.net/bugs/64032 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
