[Bug 1254829] Re: Second stage fails on first run, completes on second - qemu-sh4 Debian Sid guest

[John Paul Adrian Glaubitz]

Hi Ken!

This is not a bug in debootstrap but just an issue with the sh4
repository on ftp.debian-ports.org.

Also, Ubuntu Launchpad is the wrong place to file this bug report as
Ubuntu doesn't support architectures from Debian Ports at all. Such bug
reports belong to Debian, if at all, since it's not really a bug.

Currently, debootstrapping sh4 works, with a few limitations. I created
a detailed howto on the Debian wiki, see:

> https://wiki.debian.org/SH4/sbuildQEMU

Please note: The gcc-5 package is currently missing in sh4 and will be
throughout until roughly November, 26th as gcc-5 needs to be rebuilt for
the archive which takes a little while on native sh4 hardware. This is
*not* a bug and therefore please do *not* file a bug report.

If you are interested in Debian sh4 non-theless, join the mailing list
at:

> https://lists.debian.org/debian-superh/

Closing this bug report as invalid since it's not a bug with
debootstrap.

Adrian

Title:
  Second stage fails on first run, completes on second - qemu-sh4 Debian
  Sid guest

Status in debootstrap package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  Host: Ubuntu Precise i386
  Guest: Debian Sid (ports) sh4

  Running debootstrap to create a Debian Sid SH4 chroot fails during the
  second stage, but running the second stage again completes.

  amd64 suffers from Bug #1254824 and doesn't get this far.
