Package: pbuilder
Version: 0.231
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,
*** Reporter, please consider answering these questions, where appropriate ***
* What led up to the situation?
Building a docker image with pbuilder installed with debconf
frontend non-interactive
* What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
ineffective)?
When pbuilder is to be installed via apt in the Dockerfile, it's
configuration process apprently tries to puzl some configuration
out of /etc/apt/sources.list - but this file does not exist on
bookworm docker images (and presumeably on other systems,
neither).
At least in the bookworm docker image, the apt sources are
configured via /etc/apt/sources.list.d/debian.sources file, and
I assume its the same for systems installed "normally" with the
debian installer.
But pbuilder apparently relies on the "traditional"
/etc/apt/sources.list file, and otrherwise keeps looping through
an interactive question for the user to input a default mirror
manually.
* What was the outcome of this action?
The interactive question, at least in a docker build run, can not
be answered as the text just keeps looping.
The process must be exited with ctrl-c.
* What outcome did you expect instead?
I expect that pbuilder does not resort to interactive user input
when DEBIAN_FRONTEND=noninteractive and some default is used,
and the pbuilder instal script do not rely on a file that cannot
be guranteed to exist.
