[Bug 2077603] Re: debsum of /usr/sbin/start-stop-daemon failed

[Timo Aaltonen]

Hello Yao, or anyone else affected,

Accepted live-build into noble-proposed. The package will build now and
be available at https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/live-
build/3.0~a57-1ubuntu49.1 in a few hours, and then in the -proposed
repository.

Please help us by testing this new package.  See
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation on how
to enable and use -proposed.  Your feedback will aid us getting this
update out to other Ubuntu users.

If this package fixes the bug for you, please add a comment to this bug,
mentioning the version of the package you tested, what testing has been
performed on the package and change the tag from verification-needed-
noble to verification-done-noble. If it does not fix the bug for you,
please add a comment stating that, and change the tag to verification-
failed-noble. In either case, without details of your testing we will
not be able to proceed.

Further information regarding the verification process can be found at
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/PerformingSRUVerification .  Thank you in
advance for helping!

N.B. The updated package will be released to -updates after the bug(s)
fixed by this package have been verified and the package has been in
-proposed for a minimum of 7 days.

** Changed in: live-build (Ubuntu Noble)
       Status: In Progress => Fix Committed

Title:
  debsum of /usr/sbin/start-stop-daemon failed

Status in live-build package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in live-build source package in Noble:
  Fix Committed

Bug description:
  [ Impact ]

  The bug causes debsums to fail on the binary file "/usr/sbin/start-
  stop-daemon" from package "dpkg", which is updated during live-build
  building livecd rootfs.

  [ Test Plan ]

  1. Use Launchpad livefs feature and enable proposed

  2. Build a Ubuntu livefs

  3. Mount minimal.squashfs

  4. run "sudo debsums --root [mount dir] -c", there should be no output
  (which indicates files failed to match the package)

  [ Where problems could occur ]

  For now, no idea where it could go wrong, as we are not using live-
  build across releases.

  [ Original Report ]

  The image generated by the live-build version in noble has an error
  that checksum of /usr/sbin/start-stop-daemon mismatched.

  According to build log, dpkg has been updated from 1.22.6ubuntu6 to
  1.22.6ubuntu6.1, however the checksum of the file "start-stop-daemon"
  matches the one from 1.22.6ubuntu6.

  Checking the log of live-build in Debian, they have fixed this issue
  by changing the dpkg-divert path from /sbin/start-stop-daemon to
  /usr/sbin/start-stop-daemon.  I am trying to fix this issue in this
  direction.
