Package: cdebootstrap
Version: 0.3.9
Severity: important
[I'm not sure if this is a cdebootstrap, bash or debianutils issue; feel
free to reassign if this should be fixed elsewhere]
I can't get sid bootstrapped anymore through pbuilder or through
sudo rm -rf /tmp/flub ; sudo cdebootstrap --verbose sid /tmp/flub
due to bash's postinst aborting with an error due to /usr/sbin/add-shell
aborting with an error when no /etc/shells is present:
O: Setting up bash (3.1-1) ...
P: Configuring package bash
O: cat:
O: /etc/shells
O: : No such file or directory
O:
O: Either another instance of /usr/sbin/add-shell is running, or it was
previous
ly interrupted.
O: Please examine /etc/shells.tmp to see if it should be moved onto
/etc/shells.
O: dpkg: error processing bash (--configure):
O: subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 1
[...]
O: Errors were encountered while processing:
O: bash
E: Couldn't install root!
A fix/workaround would be for cdebootstrap to supply an empty /etc/shells in
the target prior to configuring bash.
