Bug#1107108: pre approval sbuild



Package: release.debian.org
Severity: normal
X-Debbugs-Cc: sbuild@packages.debian.org
Control: affects -1 + src:sbuild
User: release.debian.org@packages.debian.org
Usertags: unblock

Hi release team,

this is a pre approval request for an sbuild upload.

I would like to improve the build environment for forky by cleaning the
apt cache before running dpkg-buildpackage. This has the advantage that
we have a better definition of the build environment which makes it
easier to reproduce it with debrebuild later. josch (for sbuild) and
Aurelien (for wanna build) signaled already that they would be fine with
this.

Note that we only want to enable this in forky but I would still like to
push this to trixie for one because it makes it easier to implement this
on the buildds and two Debian developers using stable would get the same
results as on the buildds.

Santiago Vila did a rebuild of unstable and reproduce.debian.net tested
trixie so we are pretty sure that there are only three packages that
would need patching with this feature: autodep8 (#961138), dh-r
(#1089197) and blends (#1104515). All of them have proposed patches
already. Note that I don't propose to apply them for trixie.

I am sorry for sending this so late but I think it is better to do it
now then after the release and given the low number of affected packages
I think the risk is rather low.

Thanks for consideration

Jochen
