Thanks.
This is all quite mysterious to me and I'm not sure where to go next.
There are *two* things I don't understand:
(1) Why your sbuild with schroot rune fails but mine succeeds
(2) Why I get an FTBFS on the original valgrind from sid, when
apparently you don't
Since you say the failure (1) occurs before the build starts, I think
these two things are unrelated, and it will hopefully be possible to
debug (1) without having to understand (2). I'm hoping that (2) will
be fixed by an upload of valgrind to sid which fixes #946329 ...
So on with (1). To recap, AIUI we now have a situation where in your
setup
(a) sbuild -c buster-amd64 -A \
--no-clean-source --dpkg-source-opts='-Zgzip -z1 --format=1.0 -sn'
gives the error from dpkg-source, but
(b) schroot into the buster-amd64 chroot
sbuild --chroot-mode=autopkgtest --autopkgtest-virt-server=null -A \
--no-clean-source --dpkg-source-opts='-Zgzip -z1 --format=1.0 -sn'
works.
I think (a) will run dpkg-source to build the source pacakge outside
the chroot. (b) obviously runs it inside it. Maybe you have some
environment variable or a funny version of dpkg-dev or something ?
Can you send me the output of
printenv | sort
and the version of dpkg-dev you have outside the chroot ?
Also I would like to try a repro that is smaller than valgrind :-).
I wonder if you would be willing to try using the test case from the
dgit test suite:
# apt --no-install-recommends install dgit dgit-infrastructure
devscripts debhelper fakeroot build-essential chiark-utils-bin \
bc faketime liburi-perl sbuild man-db
# ^ # from dgit/debian/tests/control, stanza for sbuild-gitish
$ dgit clone dgit
$ cd dgit
$ DGIT_SCHROOT_CHROOT=buster-amd64 tests/tests/sbuild-gitish 2>&1 |tee log
Thanks for your help debugging this...
Ian.
