Package: autopkgtest Version: 5.44 Severity: normal Hi,
an overzealous cleanup on my build system removed uidmap. autopkgtest with unshare backend didn't like that and complaind about mmdebstrap not being able to automatically determine the mode, recommending --mode=unshare on the command line. I patched that into autopkgtest-virt-unshare, and the error message changed to a way more helpful "cannot find newuidmap". reinstalling uidmap got gid of both error message. Since it doesn't make much sense for the unshare backend to have mmdebstrap guess that the unshare mode is desired, maybe it's a good idea to add --mode=unshare to autopkgtest-virt-unshare line 80 anyway? Greetings Marc
