pbuilder calls debootstrap to create chroots, debootstrap will unpack and configure base Debian packages; I suspect debootstrap is failing due to a bug in some Debian package in sid. For instance this could be due to http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=581420.
Try running "sudo debootstrap sid rootfs", you should see the actual failure in rootfs/debootstrap.log. Please report bugs related to debootstrap failing against Debian, there's nothing we can fix on the Ubuntu side of things to make Debian debootstrapable. ** Bug watch added: Debian Bug tracker #581420 http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=581420 ** Changed in: pbuilder (Ubuntu) Status: New => Invalid -- Unable to create a sid pbuilder https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/587292 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
