Package: piuparts Version: 0.35 Severity: important Hello,
Piuparts tries to run debootstrap(8) and chroot(8) which are located in /usr/sbin/ If /usr/sbin/ is missing from the PATH environment variable, piuparts returns a Python Traceback. ===================================================== 0m0.0s DEBUG: Created temporary directory /tmp/tmp499Bpg 0m0.0s DEBUG: Setting up minimal chroot for sid at /tmp/tmp499Bpg. 0m0.0s DEBUG: Starting command: ['debootstrap', '--resolve-deps', 'sid', '/tmp/tmp499Bpg', 'http://ftp.fr.debian.org/debian/'] Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/sbin/piuparts", line 1940, in <module> main() File "/usr/sbin/piuparts", line 1888, in main chroot.create() File "/usr/sbin/piuparts", line 547, in create self.setup_minimal_chroot() File "/usr/sbin/piuparts", line 621, in setup_minimal_chroot self.name, settings.debian_mirrors[0][0]]) File "/usr/sbin/piuparts", line 352, in run stdout=subprocess.PIPE, stderr=subprocess.STDOUT) File "/usr/lib/python2.5/subprocess.py", line 594, in __init__ errread, errwrite) File "/usr/lib/python2.5/subprocess.py", line 1153, in _execute_child raise child_exception OSError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory warsheh:~$ echo $PATH /usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/games ===================================================== I took a look at piuparts.py, and it seems, it runs utilities that are located in /bin, /usr/bin and /usr/sbin [1]. I've attached a small patch that updates the $PATH environment variable to include the path listed above.
