Hi,

It seems that sbuild-update does not take into account the following setting
unlike sbuild:

$ head ~/.config/sbuild/config.pl
# example for ~/.sbuildrc.  (Also see /etc/sbuild/sbuild.conf.)  -*- Perl -*-
#
# Default settings are commented out.
# Additional options found in /etc/sbuild/sbuild.conf may be
# overridden here.

#$clean_source=0;
$chroot_mode='unshare';


Because here is what sbuild-update says without the '--chroot-mode=unshare'
option:

$ sbuild-update --update --upgrade --dist-upgrade --autoremove unstable
W: No chroots are defined in ‘/etc/schroot/schroot.conf’ or
‘/etc/schroot/chroot.d’
Error creating chroot info
Chroot setup failed at /usr/bin/sbuild-update line 145.


Whereas sbuild does not need any more such an option to switch to its unshare
mode.

Regards,
Patrice

Note: I did not check also for the other sbuild-* commands for which this could
be also inconsistent.

Hi,

Quoting Patrice Duroux (2024-12-24 19:04:28)

the solution is: do not use sbuild-update to update your tarballs when you want
to use sbuild with unshare mode. Did you try not using sbuild-update? The tool
is meant for use with the schroot backend, not with the unshare backend.

Thanks!

cheers, josch

Hello,

Bug #1091370 in sbuild reported by you has been fixed in the
Git repository and is awaiting an upload. You can see the commit
message below and you can check the diff of the fix at:

https://salsa.debian.org/debian/sbuild/-/commit/5a5ff310c0bbe98d61035a3a096075df82f7db17
------------------------------------------------------------------------
sbuild-update: abort if chroot-mode=unshare

sbuild-update does not work with chroot-mode=unshare. Abort in that case
and print an error message, instead of doing the wrong thing.

This also makes sbuild-update read $chroot_mode from the sbuild
configuration file, instead of silently overriding it to schroot.

Closes: #1089105, #1091370
