reassign 844220 usrmerge thanks Hi Marco,
to summarize this bug: upon running these jenkins jobs with debootstrap from jessie-backports (which defaults to /usr-merged), several jobs testing installations in a sid chroot failed. The symptom was that there was no mail user when exim4 was configured… When I downgraded debootstrap to the jessie version again, the error went away, so that's why I now reassign to usrmerge. https://jenkins.debian.net/job/chroot-installation_sid_install_education-desktop-mate/ on November 13 and 14 have the two installs with usrmerge. As said, there were several jobs failing like this (though I think all failed like this…) this is the rest of the essential backlog of this bug: On Sun, Nov 13, 2016 at 06:53:04PM +0000, Holger Levsen wrote: > On Sun, Nov 13, 2016 at 05:29:16PM +0100, Marc Haber wrote: > > On Sun, Nov 13, 2016 at 03:11:32PM +0000, Holger Levsen wrote: > > > Setting up exim4-config (4.88~RC4-2) ... > > > Adding system-user for exim (v4) > > > 2016-11-13 05:30:11 Exim configuration error in line 682 of > > > /var/lib/exim4/config.autogenerated.tmp: > > > user mail was not found > > Can you please verify that the user mail is present on the system? > > It was a normal installation like jenkins has done since years, every > day… so basic debootstrap + apt-get install some packages. > > > If it is present, please note this in this bug. > > > > If it is not present, check the correctness of the essential package > > base-passwd, which is responsible to keep the user mail present on all > > Debian systems (and which packages can explicitly rely on).
