Package: pbuilder
Version: 0.212
Severity: grave
Justification: may cause data loss

Dear pbuilder Maintainers,

pbuilder fails to configure on wheezy (and sid) if /etc/pbuilderrc is a
symlink to /etc/pbuilder/pbuilderrc after it replaces
/etc/pbuilder/pbuilderrc with a symlink despite pbuilder/rewrite is set
to false.

   * What led up to the situation?

I have my pbuilder in a git repository. Hence the complete
/etc/pbuilder/ is under version control while /etc/pbuilderrc is not,
but a symlink to /etc/pbuilder/pbuilderrc (to have it under version
control).

   * What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
     ineffective)?

I upgraded today pbuilder from 0.211 to 0.212. It asked me via debconf
if it should update pbuilderrc and I denied that question.

   * What was the outcome of this action?

Setting up pbuilder (0.212) ...
/var/lib/dpkg/info/pbuilder.config: 40: /var/lib/dpkg/info/pbuilder.config: 
cannot create /etc/pbuilderrc: Too many levels of symbolic links
dpkg: error processing pbuilder (--configure):
 subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 2
Processing triggers for menu ...
Errors were encountered while processing:
 pbuilder

And, even worse: My real pbuilderrc has been deleted despite
pbuilder/rewrite being set to false:

lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 13 Aug 23 21:53 /etc/pbuilder/pbuilderrc -> ../pbuilderrc
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 19 Sep 16 13:33 /etc/pbuilderrc -> pbuilder/pbuilderrc

If I wouldn't have /etc/pbuilder/ in git but choosen that layout for
other reasons (and would have no other means of backup), my handcrafted
pbuilderrc would have been lost.

   * What outcome did you expect instead?

That it just doesn't touch my handcrafted pbuilderrc independent of its
location and that it still would have looked like before:

-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 858 Sep 30 14:20 /etc/pbuilder/pbuilderrc
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root  19 Sep 16 13:33 /etc/pbuilderrc -> pbuilder/pbuilderrc

(A "git checkout pbuilderrc" and then a "dpkg --configure --pending"
solved the issue for me. Nevertheless this shouldn't happen.)
