The problem seems to be that pbuilder finds out which components to use from the $COMPONENTS var defined in pbuilderrc. Therefore, if pbuilderrc contains restricted|universe|multiverse, the Debian pbuilder creation will fail. I don't see any good fix for this, as there is no way to specify which components to use via the command line. This is a bug, reported as http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=422371
So, the workaround for now is to set $COMPONENTS to main only in pbuilderrc. ** Summary changed: - pbuilder-dist tries Ubuntu mirror for Debian distro + pbuilder-dist tries Ubuntu components for Debian distro ** Description changed: Binary package hint: ubuntu-dev-tools pbuilder-dist does not currently specify ''--mirror" and so defaults to Ubuntu even if the distribution specified is Debian. + + + update: it does not specify which components to use, and we can't do that via the command line yet. ** Changed in: ubuntu-dev-tools (Ubuntu) Assignee: (unassigned) => Adrien Cunin (adri2000) -- pbuilder-dist tries Ubuntu components for Debian distro https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/140964 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
