** Description changed:
[Impact]
Currently sbuild-launchpad-chroot fails to build/run in bionic because of bug
1892879, where a backport of ubuntu-dev-tools to bionic accidentally dropped
the python2 bindings this package uses. Since this package has been
collaterally damaged for months, I propose that we use the same justification
used for bug 1892879 and go ahead and update s-b-c to a newer upstream that
works with the python3 bindings. Specifically, I suggest we backport the
version from groovy to focal and bionic. (The version in hirsute has only
non-functional differences that would require extra backporting).
Other than moving to python3 (which required minimal changes), all other
changes to the source are fixes that have already been SRU'd back to
bionic (bug 1872163, bug 1852677, bug 1858458), except for the addition
of Vcs tags to debian/control.
[Test Case]
Test out all 3 commands on all supported releases:
for rel in xenial bionic focal groovy hirsute; do
sbuild-launchpad-chroot create -n ${rel} -s ${rel} -a $(dpkg
--print-architecture)
sbuild-launchpad-chroot update -n ${rel}
sbuild-launchpad-chroot remove -n ${rel}
done
[Where Problems May Occur]
- It's possible there are some different behaviors in the underlying
python2/python3 behavior that could cause an unexpected difference. I did check
that downloading via proxy still works fine - but perhaps there are other such
issues I didn't think to check.
+ For focal, the only diff ends up being to the changelog because all fixes
from groovy have already been backported to focal. But we need to bump the
version so that it will be > the bionic version.
