Status in Apport: Fix Released Status in apport package in Ubuntu: Fix Committed Status in apport source package in Noble: Fix Committed Bug description: [ Impact ] I'm finding it impossible to retrace any crashes with the version of apport packaged in noble or with upstream commit id adfe3698731b69b0f19ca36ecca90d8e96001250. The retracing process ends with the following lines: Extracting downloaded debs... tar: ./lib: Cannot create symlink to ‘usr/lib’: File exists tar: Exiting with failure status due to previous errors dpkg-deb: error: tar subprocess returned error exit status 2 Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/bin/apport-retrace", line 696, in <module> main() File "/usr/bin/apport-retrace", line 465, in main sandbox, cache, outdated_msg = apport.sandboxutils.make_sandbox( ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/apport/sandboxutils.py", line 227, in make_sandbox outdated_msg = packaging.install_packages( ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/apport/packaging_impl/apt_dpkg.py", line 1350, in install_packages subprocess.check_call(["dpkg", "-x", i.destfile, rootdir]) File "/usr/lib/python3.12/subprocess.py", line 413, in check_call raise CalledProcessError(retcode, cmd) subprocess.CalledProcessError: Command '['dpkg', '-x', '/srv/vms/apport-retrace/Ubuntu 24.04/apt/var/cache/apt/archives//base-files_13ubuntu9_amd64.deb', '/tmp/apport_sandbox_zj9wto2z']' returned non-zero exit status 2. I've tried cleaning the cache, /srv/vms/apport-retrace/Ubuntu 24.04/, but the retracing process continues to fail. The crashes I'm trying to retrace have been uploaded to Launchpad and still have the coredumps attached but I'd be happy to subscribe an apport developer to them. [ Test Plan ] The fix for this bug adds four new system test cases. These system test cases are run in the autopkgtest. Check that those four test cases succeed on amd64 on autopkgtest. [ Where problems could occur ] The fix touches apport-retrace. This binary is not installed by default, but is used by us to retrace users reports and by users to retrace their own crashes. This fix might reveal new issues with apport-retrace and it will hopefully help retracing more bugs on Launchpad. This should lead to more bug reports.
