Bug#727640: Build fails due to sysklogd dependency
Package: live-build
Version: 3.0.5-1
While pointing my mirror configuration at the standard Debian locations
for Wheezy, builds fail because at some point a package is pulled in
that depends on sysklogd, which no longer exists in Wheezy.
Interestingly, sysklogd exists in sid, so it's like it took some time
off in Wheezy and someone didn't update their dependencies correctly.
I have occasionally seen this in the past, and it's usually not a
problem with live-build, but with the offending package. The problem is
the output gives no real hint as to what package is wrongly depending on
sysklogd and not installing busybox-syslogd as suggested. If this is
not applicable to live-build, please suggest an alternative package
against which to report the bug.
Here's the configuration I'm using to build:
lb config \
--apt apt \
--apt-secure false \
--architecture i386 \
--distribution wheezy \
--binary-images hdd \
--binary-filesystem fat32 \
--bootloader syslinux \
--bootstrap debootstrap \
--security true \
--linux-packages "" \
--firmware-chroot false \
--firmware-binary false \
--source false \
--updates true \
--initramfs live-boot \
--apt-secure false \
--mirror-bootstrap "http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian"; \
--mirror-bootstrap-security "http://security.debian.org"; \
--mirror-chroot "http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian"; \
--mirror-chroot-security "http://security.debian.org"; \
--mirror-binary "http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian"; \
--mirror-binary-security "http://security.debian.org";
Here's a snippet of the output:
