Comments/Problems:

Simply extracting the ISO to a FAT32 partitioned USB stick and using UEFI
install by default always has been the easiest way to get a bootable USB stick
going. (I shun dd). The boot worked fine. But then it could not find the
install medium during the installation process. The usb device showed up as
/dev/sdb, but the partition /dev/sdb1 would not show up.

The solution was to use gparted to create a new GPT partition table on the USB
stick, add a FAT32 partition and extract the image to that. That solved the
problem. I was able to continue the installation after the detect-media stage.

Kind of strange that the Debian installer had issues recognizing the device
while the system BIOS had no problems recognising the MBR table + FAT partition
with UEFI image as bootable.

This was a very puzzling error. I happened to think of the solution by some
random chance within a day, but this easily could have had me puzzled for a
much longer time. That is why I filed it as "important".

The rest of the installation went smoothly. No complaints there. Thanks for all
the great work!

Bug#991177: libdebian-installer: reproducible builds: Embeds build path in libdebian-installer-extra.so.*

2021-07-16 Thread Vagrant Cascadian 
Source: libdebian-installer
Severity: normal
Tags: patch
User: reproducible-bui...@lists.alioth.debian.org
Usertags: buildpath
X-Debbugs-Cc: reproducible-b...@lists.alioth.debian.org

The build path is embedded in various places in
libdebian-installer-extra.so.*:

  
https://tests.reproducible-builds.org/debian/rb-pkg/unstable/amd64/diffoscope-results/libdebian-installer.html

  ./usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libdebian-installer-extra.so.4.0.8 

  /build/1st/libdebian-installer-0.121/build/src/../../src/list.c:30
  vs.
  /build/2/libdebian-installer-0.121/2nd/build/src/../../src/list.c:30

The attached patch fixes this by passing -ffile-prefix-map to CFLAGS in
debian/rules.

Alternately, with recent versions of dpkg, using dpkg-buildflags to set
CFLAGS should pass this option by default.


Thanks for maintaining libdebian-installer!

I know we haven't always been stellar when it comes to merging repro
build work, sorry about that. Any chance you could chase^Wremind us
about such issues once Bullseye (r0, and maybe r1) is out the door?

Thanks already!
