Re: Ruby Meta Error (Trouble setting up ruby meta script)

Awesome, thanks! 

Yeah, I saw that the solution for LXC(nested containers) was mostly for Ubuntu and there are differences like trying to install LXD on debian which does't exist and getting a work around using snapd which needs a Ubuntu distro and account to easily setup. pheww! saw all those post still didn't work

Thanks a lot i truly appreciate it, it will save me lot of work, will pull from this branch after the setup script is modified to fall back to schroot if AUTOPKGTEST_VIRT_SERVER  is set to schroot

I have modified the build scripts to fallback to schroot if
AUTOPKGTEST_VIRT_SERVER is set to any value.

https://salsa.debian.org/ruby-team/meta/-/merge_requests/13

Suggestions for a different name for this variable is welcome. I still
need to handle this case in setup script too (skip lxc setup).

So you can use build command from
https://salsa.debian.org/ruby-team/meta/-/tree/autopkgtest-schroot-support
and set AUTOPKGTEST_VIRT_SERVER=schroot in your ~/.bashrc
