Bootstrap a basic Debian system
debootstrap is used to create a Debian base system from scratch,
without requiring the availability of dpkg or apt. It does this by
downloading .deb files from a mirror site, and carefully unpacking them
into a directory which can eventually be chrooted into.
Changes: debootstrap (1.0.20~bpo50+1) lenny-backports; urgency=low
.
* Rebuild for lenny-backports.
.
debootstrap (1.0.20) unstable; urgency=low
.
* For recent Ubuntu versions, move $TARGET/sbin/initctl aside in the same
way we do start-stop-daemon, so that attempts to control Upstart jobs
won't inadvertently affect jobs in the host system.
* Rename EXAMPLE section in debootstrap(8) to EXAMPLES (closes: #548458).
.
debootstrap (1.0.19) unstable; urgency=low
.
* Ignore failures from dpkg --predep-package. It exits 1 if there are no
suitable packages available, which isn't an error for us, but in_target
complains anyway, so just use in_target_nofail; the termination
condition is handled immediately afterwards anyway.
.
debootstrap (1.0.18) unstable; urgency=low
.
* Only use dpkg from the chroot, as there is no guarantee dpkg is
available outside of the chroot (d-i installation for example).
.
debootstrap (1.0.17) unstable; urgency=low
.
* Remove boneheaded use of sudo left over from testing (closes: #547949).
.
debootstrap (1.0.16) unstable; urgency=low
.
[ Colin Watson ]
* Cope with pre-dependencies of included packages that aren't in Priority:
required (closes: #487908).
* Upgrade to debhelper v7. (Override rules get pretty hairy for this
package, so I haven't switched to dh(1).)
* Use ports.ubuntu.com as default mirror on sparc for Ubuntu hardy and
beyond (LP: #431145).
* Add (Ubuntu) lucid as a symlink to gutsy.
.
[ Frans Pop ]
* Makefile: remove unused ARCH variable.
.
debootstrap (1.0.15) unstable; urgency=low
.
* On Linux, clear out /etc/mtab on exit if it's not a symlink. Should fix
problems Wouter Verhelst and Martin Michlmayr are seeing with
initramfs-tools MODULES=dep, although it probably isn't a perfect
solution.
.
debootstrap (1.0.14) unstable; urgency=low
.
* Apply patch from Felix Zielcke <fzielcke@z-51.de> to use "dpkg
--print-architecture" to avoid deprecation warning. Closes: #531680.
* Reference squeeze instead of sarge in manpage. Based on a patch from
Geoff Simmons <gsimmons@gsimmons.org>. Closes: #534575.
* Apply patch from Riku Voipio <riku.voipio@iki.fi> to add support for
scratchbox variant. Closes: #536820.
.
debootstrap (1.0.13) unstable; urgency=low
.
[ Otavio Salvador ]
* Apply patch from Luca Favatella <slackydeb@gmail.com> to improve
coding style.
.
[ Colin Watson ]
* Add (Ubuntu) karmic as a symlink to gutsy.
.
debootstrap (1.0.12) unstable; urgency=low
.
[ Otavio Salvador ]
* Improve code to choose between libc packages. Thanks to Luca Favatella
<slackydeb@gmail.com> for first version of the patch.
.
[ Colin Watson ]
* Remove partial support for emitting translated progress messages with
gettext. Don't panic; d-i still has all the support necessary for this.
debootstrap's own support for doing this outside d-i with gettext's
shell bindings has been completely broken ever since it was added in
2003, though, and nobody has complained. Fixing it would require a big
pile of infrastructure and some non-trivial patches, plus arranging to
copy all the translations over from base-installer, and it just doesn't
seem worth it, so lose the cruft (LP: #188690).
* Export PATH, just to make sure. It isn't necessarily exported by shells
running from init=/bin/sh or similar, and the upstream bash maintainer
is unwilling to export it by default; it's easy enough to do so here
(LP: #320188).
.
debootstrap (1.0.11) unstable; urgency=low
.
* Add (Ubuntu) jaunty as a symlink to gutsy.
* Clarify that --second-stage is needed to complete the bootstrapping
process after --foreign.
* Fix --make-tarball= option (closes: #484869).
* Fix old Debian scripts and all Ubuntu scripts to cope with Anthony's
change in 1.0.8 to make --second-stage not bother recalculating required
and base.
* Rename 'repeat' to 'repeatn', since 'repeat' is a reserved word in zsh;
although strictly speaking this seems like an incompatibility in zsh
when linked to /bin/sh (closes: #340058).
* Fix --unpack-tarball= option (thanks, Torsten Landschoff; closes:
#500759).
* Fix handling of relative DEBOOTSTRAP_DIR (thanks, Mikhail Gusarov;
closes: #503460).
* Cope with ancient versions of chroot(8) that don't call chdir() (thanks,
Patrik Arvhult; closes: #350635).
* Recommend gnupg for --keyring option (thanks, Robert Millan; closes:
#467571).
* Note that you can't --include packages with non-required Pre-Depends
(see #487908).
* Mention /sys in EXAMPLE section of manual page, and use "defaults"
rather than "none" as the mount options for /proc (thanks, Raúl Sánchez
Siles; closes: #410787).
* Add /dev/console to devices.tar.gz (after all, MAKEDEV's 'consoleonly'
was added for boot-floppies in the first place; see
https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-devel/2009-January/027230.html).
* Add support for squeeze (closes: #513488).
