[Bug 1004579] Re: [pbuilder-dist] overwrite OTHERMIRROR set in ~/.pbuilderrc
Adding to my previous comment, I can also see that the documentation is wrong. The page https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PbuilderHowto#Differences_with_pbuilder says that: [QUOTE] pbuilder-dist does apparently not yet support all kinds of operations. The following doesn't work correctly for example: sudo pbuilder-dist eoan i386 update --override-config --othermirror "deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/cae-team/ppa/ubuntu eoan main" So if you want to add a repository, you will have to use "OTHERMIRROR" in ~/.pbuilderrc as follows: OTHERMIRROR="deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/cae-team/ppa/ubuntu eoan main" [/QUOTE] But adding OTHERMIRROR to ~/.pbuilderrc has no effect, as was originally reported. Basic tracing shows that this is still the case in focal (20.04). My workaround has been to add a hook directory ~/.pbuilderrc by adding the line: HOOKDIR="$HOME/.pbuilder-hooks/" Then in $HOME/.pbuilder-hooks/ create a file D10addsource which contains the lines: echo "deb [your-source-here]" >> /etc/apt/sources.list apt-get update However, if setting OTHERMIRROR inside of ~/.pbuilderrc worked as documented, then all I would have needed to do would be to add the following line to ~/.pbuilderrc and no hook required: OTHERMIRROR="deb [your-source-here]" If my workaround is wrong, please tell me. So in summary, this bug still exists. If the bug is not going to be fixed, then at least the documentation needs to be updated. This bug is somewhat related to https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubuntu-dev-tools/+bug/371221, because if packages from ~/pbuilder/dist_result could satisfy dependencies then I wouldn't need to use OTHERMIRROR. But really OTHERMIRROR should still work regardless. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1004579 Title: [pbuilder-dist] overwrite OTHERMIRROR set in ~/.pbuilderrc To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubuntu-dev-tools/+bug/1004579/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 1004579] Re: [pbuilder-dist] overwrite OTHERMIRROR set in ~/.pbuilderrc
This bug still exists in focal 20.04. It should not have been closed. When using pbuilder-dist the value of OTHERMIRROR is ignored, as is the value of --othermirror passed as argument to pbuilder-dist. To work around this I need to manually add a mirror to /etc/apt/sources.list from within a hook file, which is a bit of a hack and shouldn't be necessary. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1004579 Title: [pbuilder-dist] overwrite OTHERMIRROR set in ~/.pbuilderrc To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubuntu-dev-tools/+bug/1004579/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 1004579] Re: [pbuilder-dist] overwrite OTHERMIRROR set in ~/.pbuilderrc
I guess another possibility would be to read pbuilderrc as well within pbuilder-dist? So if the environment var is not set, check whether it is set in pbuilderrc before then reading devscripts fallbacks. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1004579 Title: [pbuilder-dist] overwrite OTHERMIRROR set in ~/.pbuilderrc To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubuntu-dev-tools/+bug/1004579/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Oh, sorry, wrong bug.

pbuilder-dist will respect an OTHERMIRROR variable from the environment, if you need to add a mirror.

[Bug 1004579] Re: pbuilder-dist overwrite OTHERMIRROR set in ~/.pbuilderrc
This works correctly in pbuilder in precise, it is just that the --othermirror option overrides ~/.pbuilderrc, and it seems this option was added by default since commit 1208 in lp:ubuntu-dev-tools (or somewhere around there). I'm going to move this to ubuntu-dev-tools since that package has pbuilder-dist. ** Package changed: pbuilder (Ubuntu) = ubuntu-dev-tools (Ubuntu) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1004579 Title: pbuilder-dist overwrite OTHERMIRROR set in ~/.pbuilderrc To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubuntu-dev-tools/+bug/1004579/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
