[Bug 1995180] Re: Error trying to bootstrap ubuntu lunar from a lunar chroot: E: Couldn't find these debs: usr-is-merged

[Juozas Pocius]

Latest version of debootstrap on Ubuntu 22.04 LTS now links lunar to
gutsy. After using this script version and creating temporary chroot it
works fine while bootstraping from it. This bug can be safely closed as
no such error like it is shown at the time.

Title:
  Error trying to bootstrap ubuntu lunar from a lunar chroot: E:
  Couldn't find these debs: usr-is-merged

Status in debootstrap package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Trying to bootstrap Ubuntu 23.04 from 23.04 chroot generates an error
  as shown below. Steps done prior trying to bootstrap: created a
  symlink named lunar linking to bullseye located in the
  /usr/share/debootstrap/scripts folder.

  # debootstrap --variant=minbase lunar /target http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu
  W: Cannot check Release signature; keyring file not available /usr/share/keyrings/debian-archive-keyring.gpg

  E: Couldn't find these debs: usr-is-merged

  Adding --exclude=usr-is-merged to command line avoids the problem.

  Temporary chroot bootstrapped from Ubuntu 22.04 LTS using command
  # debootstrap --variant=minbase --no-check-gpg lunar /tmp/lunar http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu

  Chroot accessed using a helper script created by me that automates
  many repetitive jobs when chrooting to a linux based OS, it is
  attached, usage: script_name chroot

  Debootstrap version 1.0.127ubuntu1
