Package: debootstrap
Version: 1.0.37
Severity: important
Hello,
I have an issue with debootstrap. I debugged the issue and I found the
following:
The Problem is in the file /usr/share/debootstrap/functions line 634
Here is the code of the line 628 to 634
$PKGDETAILS PKGS "$m" "$pkgdest" "$@" | (
leftover=""
while read p ver arc mdup fil checksum size; do
if [ "$ver" = "-" ]; then
leftover="$leftover $p"
else
progress_next "$(($dloaddebs + $size))"
checksum should contain the SHA256sum and size should contain the size.
But if the Packages.gz file does not contain any SHA256sums, then the
checksum variable contains the size and the size variable is empty.
If that happens then the line 634 executes "0 +"
I used the following command:
root# debootstrap --no-check-gpg --verbose squeeze /path/chrootsystem/
ftp://ftp.domain.tld/pub/debian/squeeze
...
I: Found additional base dependencies: libnfnetlink0 libsqlite3-0
I: Checking component main on ftp://ftp.domain.tld/pub/debian/squeeze...
root#
Note that there is no useful error message at the console. A message
which tells the user to look at debootstrap.log would be nice.
And the file /path/chrootsystem/debootstrap/debootstrap.log conains:
/usr/sbin/debootstrap: 634: /usr/sbin/debootstrap: arithmetic
expression: expecting primary: "0 + "
Can somebody please implement a parameter which tells debootstrap not
to relly on SHA256sums and use MD5sums instead?
About my issue with no SHA256Sums in Packages.gz I already opend
another bug [1].
