Wait, what? Specific changes were made to debootstrap in order to
allow the buildd machines to stay un-merged, as the CTTE wanted,
Can you elaborate on that? What you say sounds as something that
could be said two years ago before the release of bullseye, i.e.
newly installed systems have usr-merge by default but we keep
building packages on not usr-merged chroots.
When did the switch happen, and how?
I believe it was sometime in 2022-11, but I can't tell for sure. I believe it
happened because I sometimes monitor debian-bugs-rc and at some point bugs
about packages which FTBFS on usr-merged systems became serious.
Sorry not to be more precise. I hope somebody who knows better can answer.
( In case it's confirmed that the buildds are already using usr-merge for
bookworm
and sid, would you agree that the debootstrap program in bookworm should do the
same by default? )
Thanks.
