Package: dfsbuild Version: 0.99.2 Severity: grave Justification: renders package unusable
cdebootstrap saves the Release file as _dists_.Release, which causes dfsbuild to break. Changing Release to _dists_.Release in Actions/Mirror.hs appears to resolve the problem. Would it make sense to use another tool instead of cdebootstrap when you are building the mirror? It seems that the call to cdebootstrap in Mirror.hs is only to set up a mirror, but I can't see that cdebootstrap makes any promises about what it calls the Release file. But i'd never even heard of a .hs file until yesterday so what would I know :) Also, the default packages lists are wrong for etch (testing)... a few of them (ntfstools, pnpbios-tools, lvm10) don't exist there and it breaks. It would nice if it did a validation or something really early on and informed the user of all the packages which aren't available... or maybe this is more related to cdebootstrap -- System Information: Debian Release: 4.0 APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing') Architecture: i386 (i686) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Kernel: Linux 2.6.17-2-686 Locale: LANG=en_AU.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_AU.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Versions of packages dfsbuild depends on: ii cdebootstrap 0.3.15 Bootstrap a Debian system ii cramfsprogs 1.1-6 Tools for CramFs (Compressed ROM F ii debconf [debconf-2.0] 1.5.8 Debian configuration management sy ii grub 0.97-20 GRand Unified Bootloader ii libc6 2.3.6.ds1-8 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii libgmp3c2 2:4.2.1+dfsg-4 Multiprecision arithmetic library ii mkisofs 9:1.1.0-1 Dummy transition package for genis ii reprepro 1.3.1-1 debian package repository producer ii ucf 2.0017 Update Configuration File: preserv dfsbuild recommends no packages. -- no debconf information
