Package: python-apt
Version: 0.9.1
Severity: normal
Dear Maintainer,
I tried to use python-apt to get all available package versions. I used
the 'rootdir' parameter for apt.Cache to have a seperate root dir and
seperated config files.
In my /etc/apt/apt.conf , I have the following line:
APT::Default-Release "sid";
In my root-dir, I create an empty 'rootdir/etc/apt/apt.conf' and when I
try to init the apt.Cache, I get the following error:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "./python-apt-repro-test", line 31, in <module>
cache = apt.Cache(rootdir=root_dir, memonly=False)
File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/apt/cache.py", line 105, in __init__
self.open(progress)
File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/apt/cache.py", line 150, in open
self._cache = apt_pkg.Cache(progress)
SystemError: E:The value 'sid' is invalid for APT::Default-Release as such a release is not available in the sources
Attached is a test program which results in this error (but you have add
the "APT::Default-Release" line to your /etc/apt/apt.conf).
Cheers,
Tom
