Package: debian-installer Version: 20150107 Severity: important build daemons traditionally use the Dir::Etc::SourceList apt configuration option in order to specify a different sources.list file. debian-installer sources.list.udeb generator doesn't consider this option, which causes a FTBFS on some build daemons without /etc/apt/sources.list or with an outdated one.
This is reproducible on an installation using only the standard /etc/apt/sources.list: # echo 'Dir::Etc::SourceList "sources.list2";' > /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/sources.conf # mv /etc/apt/sources.list /etc/apt/sources.list2 # apt-get -q -q update ; echo $? 0 So it means apt is able to work correctly in this situation. Unfortunately the debian-installer sources.list.udeb generator doesn't consider Dir::Etc::SourceList, leading to the following source file: | make[2]: Entering directory '/home/aurel32/debian-installer-20150107/build' | Using generated sources.list.udeb: | deb [trusted=yes] copy:/home/aurel32/debian-installer-20150107/build/ localudebs/ | make[9]: 'sources.list.udeb' is up to date. | Ign copy: localudebs/ InRelease | Ign copy: localudebs/ Release.gpg | Ign copy: localudebs/ Release | Get:1 copy: localudebs/ Packages [20 B] | Ign copy: localudebs/ Translation-en | Fetched 20 B in 0s (1052 B/s) -- System Information: Debian Release: 8.0 APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 Kernel: Linux 3.16.0-4-amd64 (SMP w/8 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=fr_FR.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=fr_FR.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-boot-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
