Package: base-files
Version: 3.8
Severity: serious
User: debian-qa@lists.debian.org
Usertags: jenkins

Hi Santiago, 

during a test with piuparts^wjenkins I noticed your package failed to install.
As per definition of the release team this makes the package too buggy for a 
release, thus the severity.

See 
https://jenkins.debian.net/job/chroot-installation_sid_bootstrap/734/console
for the full log, though it's boring except for the last line. (See just 2 lines below here...)

Then I tried to debootstrapp sid manually and this is what I got:

root@matrix:/home/schroots# debootstrap sid ./sidtest http://ftp.de.debian.org/debian
[...]
I: Installing core packages...
W: Failure trying to run: chroot /home/schroots/sidtest dpkg --force-depends --install /var/cache/apt/archives/base-files_7.8_amd64.deb /var/cache/apt/archives/base-passwd_3.5.36_amd64.deb
W: See /home/schroots/sidtest/debootstrap/debootstrap.log for details (possibly the package package is at fault)

This happens since today, so I assume yesterdays base-files upload is at fault.

Thanks for maintaining base-files!

Hi,

I can confirm that the problem is gone with debootstrap from wheezy-backports 
and I strongly assume this change is the fix:

 debootstrap (1.0.56) unstable; urgency=low
 .
   [ Tollef Fog Heen ]
   * Install base-passwd and base-files in two calls rather than one to
     avoid problems with home-built media with different ordering in
     Packages.  Thanks to Jo Shields for pointing this out and providing
     the workaround.  Closes: #601670.  LP: #1001131.


cheers,
