Building Debian bookworm images for arm64 currently broken

[Bezdeka, Florian]

Hi all,

the upstream Debian testing/bookworm repositories are currently in a
state where different package versions are shipped for different
architectures. This shouldn't be something new or surprising, but as
libc-bin is affected it might simply ease the disclosure of a Isar bug
because a lot of other packages depend on libc.

libc-bin for x86 was updated to 2.35 recently while arm64 is still on
2.34.

When trying to build a Debian bookworm based image for arm64 I get the
attached error.

Are we kind of mixing information from the build-schroot into the
target-schroot? Would be very kind if someone with sbuild knowledge
would look into that.

Best regards,
Florian

Hi Florian,

This looks indeed a bit strange but this is how sbuild generates cross-build dependencies.
The libc6-dev:arm64 is one of the default build dependencies.

If you look closely, you also see that in the following line:
Merged Build-Depends: debhelper (>= 10), build-essential:amd64, fakeroot:amd64, crossbuild-essential-arm64:amd64, libc-dev:arm64, libstdc++-dev:arm64

Actually I don't know why sbuild generates the default deps like that, but there is probably a reason to it.

Apart from that, the "customizations" is built as an arch=arm64 package, but it perfectly qualifies as an arch=all package.
That's more in line with Debian policies.
To change this, simply add `DPKG_ARCH = "all"` to the recipe.

Best regards,
Felix
