E: failed to find /var/cache/pbuilder/base.tgz, have you done <pbuilder create>
to create your base tarball yet?

I'm assuming there are some setup steps that I am missing.

Graham,

I would start with setting up and using 'sbuild'. Documentation on its
installation and configuration should be found at the link below.

https://wiki.debian.org/sbuild

Managed to find this was the messing step:

minfrin@debian12:~/test$ sudo pbuilder create

After that I was able to run the build.

The error is above the config.log, and looks like this:

checking pkg-config is at least version 0.9.0... yes

checking for openssl >= 1.0.2... yes

checking for openssl/pem.h... yes

checking for nss >= 3.11... yes

checking for p11-kit-1... yes

checking for libical >= 0.40... yes

checking for libical/ical.h... yes

checking for ldns >= 1.7.0... yes

checking for ldns/ldns.h... yes

checking for libunbound >= 1.16... no

configure: error: Package requirements (libunbound >= 1.16) were not met:

Package 'libevent', required by 'libunbound', not found

This looks like a bug in libunbound - it is missing a dependency on libevent, which is then not pulled in, and in turn causes our build to fail.

This is the bug I raised when I originally hit the problem:

https://www.mail-archive.com/debian-bugs-dist@lists.debian.org/msg2019978.html

Installing libevent manually is the workaround, obviously not going to work for an automated build.

Graham
