Hi, Would it be possible to add support for devuan in debootstrap ? Or maybe a devuan specific package is needed since devuan forked the original package here : https://git.devuan.org/devuan/debootstrap Let me know what you think. Thanks for reading. Reproducible: Always
I think you can just specify URL as parameter. check /usr/share/debootstrap/scripts, most debian scripts just use sid template (as a symlink) try something like debootstrap --arch amd64 ascii /mnt https://deb.devuan.org/merged/ ascii ascii is supported also you can just use stable debootstrap --arch amd64 stable /mnt http://deb.devuan.org/merged/ stable ^ this should give you stable branch of devuan
It works fine indeed. I used : debootstrap --no-check-certificate --keyring=usr/share/keyrings/devuan-keyring.gpg --arch amd64 stable chroot https://deb.devuan.org/merged/ stable --no-check-certificate because their website seems misconfigured. I extracted the keyring from the deb file here : https://pkgmaster.devuan.org/devuan/pool/main/d/devuan-keyring/devuan-keyring_2017.10.03_all.deb I will add a devuan-keyring ebuild to my localrepo for peace of mind. Thanks!
(In reply to David Duchesne from comment #2) > --no-check-certificate because their website seems misconfigured. Well, using https://pkgmaster.devuan.org/merged/dists instead fixes the issue.
we do have debian keyring and ubuntu keyring as packages, probably we can add devuan too. I'll add a to-do and maybe add it later, away right now. also as I can see debian debootstrap eventually adds debvuan codenames, so probably with next release they will add chimaera codename too. meanwhile 'stable' works =)
Created attachment 766605 [details] devuan-keyring-2017.10.03 (ebuild) ebuild for devuan-keyring for those interested
