Hi,
going to the RC bugs I saw this one and having worked on other
packages that reuse debs or sources I have some things to add:
1. You can not assume /etc/apt/sources.list or even network access is
functional inside the buildd chroot. You may not use the outside
network at all during build. This is an unwritten policy.
2. You can not include (GPL) binaries in a deb without including the
source in the source package. Your gibraltar-bootcd deb can stay
around for a long time while the sources/debs you used get
updated. That would mean that you have binaries without source in
your deb. That is a violation of the DFSG for one thing and a
violation of the binaries licences.
Compare with amd64-libs, which is the latest such package being added
to debian. ftp-master insisted on amd64-libs having sources included.
MfG
Goswin
