[Bug 2060615] Re: [noble] two versions of perl-modules are published, breaking pbuilder/debootstrap

[Walter]

Hi!

I have issues with my debootstrap now:


  debootstrap --arch=amd64 --components='main,restricted,universe' \
  --include="linux-image-generic casper initramfs-tools grub-pc bzip2 ca-certificates curl ipmitool iputils-ping lsof man-db netcat-openbsd nmap patch rsync ssh tcpdump vim ethtool lshw pciutils debootstrap efibootmgr fdisk gdisk parted nvme-cli smartmontools cryptsetup dosfstools e2fsprogs hdparm lvm2 mdadm zfsutils-linux jq python3-pip python3-setuptools python-is-python3 coreutils pwgen smartmontools nvme-cli hdparm sdparm sg3-utils lldpd" noble ./build-noble/rootfs

Ends with:

  Errors were encountered while processing:
   libsnmp40t64:amd64
   lldpd
  dpkg: dependency problems prevent configuration of libsnmp40t64:amd64:
   libsnmp40t64:amd64 depends on libperl5.38 (>= 5.38.2); however:
    Package libperl5.38 is not installed.

If I add:

 libperl5.38t64

Which provides libperl5.38, then I can bootstrap succesfully.

Is this the same problem? Or something different?

In my case debootstrap seems unable to find something that provides
libperl5.38 at all.

Title:
  [noble] two versions of perl-modules are published, breaking
  pbuilder/debootstrap

Status in perl package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in perl source package in Noble:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  For the last two weeks, building noble VM images for our CI has been
  broken. Most of it was uninstallability due to the xz reset, but for
  the last three days, `pbuilder --create` has failed [2] because it
  gets perl and perl-modules-5.38 in two different versions:

  2024-04-08 08:47:08 URL:http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/p/perl/perl-base_5.38.2-3.2build2_amd64.deb [1822564/1822564] -> "/var/cache/pbuilder/aptcache//perl-base_5.38.2-3.2build2_amd64.deb" [1]
  2024-04-08 08:47:09 URL:http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/p/perl/perl-modules-5.38_5.38.2-3_all.deb [3110080/3110080] -> "/var/cache/pbuilder/aptcache//perl-modules-5.38_5.38.2-3_all.deb" [1]

  and then trying to configure the packages blows up. The root cause is
  that perl-modules has *two* versions published:


  # curl -s http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/noble/main/binary-amd64/Packages.xz|xzgrep -A5 'Package: perl-modules-'
  Package: perl-modules-5.38
  Architecture: all
  Version: 5.38.2-3.2build2
  Multi-Arch: foreign
  Priority: optional
  Build-Essential: yes
  --
  Package: perl-modules-5.38
  Architecture: all
  Version: 5.38.2-3
  Multi-Arch: foreign
  Priority: optional
  Build-Essential: yes

  While apt is clever enough to pick the right one, debootstrap isn't.
  Can you please remove the old perl-modules-5.38 5.38.2-3 from noble?

  Thanks!
