[Bug 309750] [NEW] etch.d/20-setup-apt script never enables security update sources

[Randall Blecher]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: xen-tools

When using xen-create-image to create a Debian Etch image, the apt
sources for security.debian.org are always commented out in the created
/etc/apt/sources.list file.

The script /usr/lib/xen-tools/etch.d/20-setup-apt is supposed to check
the host's apt sources to see if security updates are enabled.  If they
are, it is supposed to enable them on the guest image.  However, it
checks for the Debian security sources, not the Ubuntu security sources,
so it always thinks that the host's security updates are disabled.

The following snippet in /usr/lib/xen-tools/etch.d/20-setup-apt should
be updated to reflect Ubuntu's security update sources:


#
#  If the host system has security support then enable that here too.
#
if ( grep ^deb.*security.debian.org /etc/apt/sources.list >/dev/null 2>/dev/null ) ; then

    cat <<E_O_APT >> ${prefix}/etc/apt/sources.list
# 
#  Security updates
# 
deb     http://security.debian.org/ ${dist}/updates  main contrib non-free
deb-src http://security.debian.org/ ${dist}/updates  main contrib non-free
E_O_APT

else
    cat <<E_O_APT >> ${prefix}/etc/apt/sources.list
# 
#  Security updates - Uncomment to enable.
# 
# deb     http://security.debian.org/ ${dist}/updates  main contrib non-free
# deb-src http://security.debian.org/ ${dist}/updates  main contrib non-free
E_O_APT
