Package: debootstrap Version: 1.0.114 Severity: normal I tried installing an armel chroot on an arm64 machine:
$ sudo debootstrap --variant=minbase --arch=armel --no-merged-usr --verbose sid /srv/chroots/armeltest http://deb.debian.org/debian/ E: Unable to execute target architecture This appears to be due to: #922728: arch-test: reports armel invalid on arm64 system https://bugs.debian.org/922728 If I remove arch-test, debootstrap works fine, installs the chroot, and I'm able to chroot into the armel environment just fine. Other than uninstalling arch-test, there appears to be no way to tell debootstrap to ignore, or at least downgrade arch-test results to a warning. I'm not sure if a commandlinne option and/or environment variable would be the preferred workaround. Obviously, the best thing to do is fix arch-test in this particular case, but if it's not possible, or it takes a long time, or some future bug in arch-test comes around, it'd be nice to be able to override it without uninstalling arch-test. live well, vagrant -- System Information: Debian Release: buster/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing'), (500, 'stable'), (120, 'unstable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: arm64 (aarch64) Kernel: Linux 4.20.0-trunk-arm64 (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Kernel taint flags: TAINT_SOFTLOCKUP Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /usr/bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) LSM: AppArmor: enabled Versions of packages debootstrap depends on: ii wget 1.20.1-1 Versions of packages debootstrap recommends: ii arch-test 0.15-1 ii debian-archive-keyring 2018.1 ii gnupg 2.2.12-1 Versions of packages debootstrap suggests: pn squid-deb-proxy-client <none> pn ubuntu-archive-keyring <none> -- no debconf information
