Package: debci-worker
Version: 3.6
Severity: minor

Hi Paul and Antonio,

I am reporting a minor oddity here. If you install debci-worker without
installing recommends (and thus miss lxc), the debci-worker cronjob will
still try to run debci setup with the lxc backend by default and fail.
This incurs a daily cron mail. This feels slightly odd.

Related to that, it tries to create a testbed for unstable amd64 using
lxc by default (same thing actually) during postinst. It would be nice
to be able to opt out of this behaviour (e.g. when you are not targeting
unstable). I note that kali's setup has code that specifically gets rid
of this unstable testbed and it seems like it would be nicer to just not
create it.

If you have ideas for how this should work, I can turn them into
patches. If you feel like this works as intended and I should just
delete that testbed and cronjob, then close this bug instead.

Helmut
