Hi Adrian,
Thank you for your quick answer.
As you note, including debian-ports-archive-keyring-udeb and
setting DEBIAN_RELEASE = unstable benefits to all ports architecture.
Including pata-modules-${kernel:Version} is alpha-specific instead
('qemu-system-alpha-specific' in fact).
Here are some details missing in the original bug report :
At runtime, choose-mirror-bin checks the availability of
the selected mirror and of the required 'suite' on it.
The suite is taken from the file /etc/default-release
(if not preseeded in debconf variable 'mirror/suite').
At build time, the content of the variable DEBIAN_RELEASE
is written into /etc/default-release.
Unfortunately, the cd images from 2019-01-25 have 'buster'
in /etc/default-release.
Actually I tested with a (home made) netboot image in qemu
emulation. I wasn't able to test the cd images with qemu-system-alpha
precisely because of the missing cdrom driver in initrd.gz :
it boots but cannot mount the cdrom image afterwards.
Sorry for this late reply, and thank you for your work on the
ports architectures !
Regards,
JH Chatenet
