Hi Sigfried, Of course I use symlinks all the time, what do you want to tell me in your last comment?
The goal is too use other urls of package archives in the chroots, but only for specific distriubutions. In the config snippet, posted initially, you see that there is the XXXX-backports included explicitly for hardy. The main problem is that the environment variables set via os.environ['XXX'] are not available in the configuration file. So question is why and how to workaround possible limitations with python in that case (If it is a python problem). Here's the task, of setting environment variables, described and perhaps a workaround in the comments: http://code.activestate.com/recipes/159462 -how-to-set-environment-variables/ -- pbuilder-dist and flexible configuration files https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/628933 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
