Whenever I try to use pbuilder to build a package after upgrading the
chroot today, I get:
frobnitz:/tmp/kdenetwork# su -p daniel -- dpkg-source -x
kdenetwork_3.3.2-6.dsc
/usr/bin/dpkg-source: line 3: my: command not found
/usr/bin/dpkg-source: line 4: my: command not found
This is very likely to be the fix for #276419 which is culprit here.
Other team members, who looks more closely at this?
For the record:
From the #shadow IRC channel, here is Nicolas François (nekral)
analysis:
01:06 nekral hi
01:09 nekral I'm looking at the log and here are clarifications of my thought
01:12 nekral in #276419, we were asked not to concatenate all arguments
before passing them to the shell (or command if -c)
01:15 nekral Another point was asked by 276419-submitter: not to add a -c
argument to the executed shell when no command was provided to su (with -c)
01:16 nekral regarding the first point:
01:16 nekral * the old behavior was not documented (Any arguments supplied
after the username will be passed to the invoked shell)
01:18 nekral * the old behavior differ from current upstream (and probably
from other distribution, upstream using a patch from redhat)
01:19 nekral * applications requiring that the arguments are concatenated
should concatenate themself
01:19 nekral Then regarding the second point:
01:21 nekral * the man page does not indicate that -c is inserted in the
list of arguments provided to the shell
01:24 nekral(thus su - $USERNAME -- -x should work and should execute
a shell in debug mode (the arguments should be [shell, -x] and not
[shell, -c, -x])
01:31 nekral Then, if too many packages relied on the previous behavior, and
if only 276419-submitter push for the applied patch, then a pragmatical approch
could be to revert
01:31 nekral (We can also only revert one of the above points)
01:33 nekral Zugschlus, I don't understand the point about your clamav-data
testing script on debian-volatile
01:34 nekral did it occured with login 4.0.3-36?
01:34 nekral su - $ACCOUNT -c bash works nicely with login 4.0.3-36
01:37 nekral (also, I can't find any reference to su in clamav-data)
07:42 Zugschlus fsck, nekral isn't there
07:43 Zugschlus the testing script is not part of the package
