Package: pbuilder
Version: 0.224
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable
Dear all,
the recent changes in /tmp handling seem to have made
cowbuilder/pbuilder unable to build any package:
$ cowbuilder --build foobar.dsc
...
This package was created automatically by pbuilder to satisfy the
build-dependencies of the package being currently built.
Depends: ....
dpkg-deb: building package 'pbuilder-satisfydepends-dummy' in '/tmp/satisfydepends-aptitude/pbuilder-satisfydepends-dummy.deb'.
dpkg-deb: error: failed to make temporary file (control member): No such file or directory
E: pbuilder-satisfydepends failed.
I am not sure where the fix should be, though.
Thanks
Norbert

There have been no recent changes in /tmp handling.

As you can guess problems like "pbuilder's unable to build any package"
would be kind of spotted before releasing...

This error is the same as the one reported in #576425, a report about
pbuilder not working with libpam-tmpfs. Are you using libpam-tmpfs?
If not please provide you /etc/pbuilderrc, ~/.pbuilderrc, a full log
with --debug.

Great. I've been meaning to ask for this some days ago, but for me
these days are totally crazy for me, and eventually forget.
JOOI, how do you happen to have TEMP set like that if you don't use
libpam-tmpdir??

So, this is actually the same problem already reported in 2 other bugs
(that I finally merged); see #576425 and #725434.
Current "workaround" is to add a hook before the build to create that
directory.
Also, downgrading the bug to severity:minor…

Hi Mattia,

Ahhh, no I see ... I searched for libpam-tmpfs (that i what you
mentioned in the first email), and that was not installed, indeed.
OTOH, libpam-tmpdir, yes, that is here.
Interestingly it is marked in aptitude as auto-installed, but
can be removed, and indeed, it came in as recommends from
libpam-ssh.
Well ok, I will cater for it in one way or the other (workaround
or removing libpam-tmpdir).
Sorry for the confusion
All the best
Norbert

enough.

Someday I'll get around to understand what actually fails and fix it.
Probably just having pbuilder mkdir TEMP if not existing would be
enough, or maybe just unsetting that variable. dunno, I need to
understand better what that thing is in first place...

Just FYI, unsetting only TEMP did not work, I needed also TMPDIR
(but I didn't try whether only TMPDIR also works ;-)

Just unset TMP in a wrapper you do around cowbuilder.
Hasn’t this been reported multiple times already?
In fact, it’s best to only let a whitelist of environment
variables in so your package build is not unexpectedly
changed, so that’s good hygiene anyway.
