Why this version of pbuilder? This isn't the current version in either
testing or unstable; does this bug still occur if you upgrade?

Sounds vaguely bogus, and considering that debootstrap won't be kept in sync
with sid anyway...

I'm inclined to just close this bug; I'm feeling
a deja-vu; is there a mail loop somewhere?

I suspect this is a symptom of bug 375510. Would you please try
again, adding "--debootstrapopts --debug", and see if that's true?

Looks like a bug in ppp's postinst to me:

ppp's postinst script seems to have changed between 2.4.4b1-1.diff.gz and
ppp_2.4.4rel-1.diff.gz from:

# create /dev/ppp if we are not using devfs
if [ ! -c /dev/ppp ]; then
  cd /dev && /sbin/MAKEDEV ppp
fi

to:

# create /dev/ppp if we are not using udev
if [ ! -c /dev/ppp ]; then
  cd /dev && ./MAKEDEV ppp
fi

I don't know why Marco changed the location of MAKEDEV; it was right
before:

$ dpkg -S MAKEDEV
makedev: /sbin/MAKEDEV

Because if makedev is not installed but udev is, /sbin/MAKEDEV will not
exist. Most other packages use /dev/MAKEDEV, but probably ppp is the
only one which pbuilder tries to install.
Usually I think this would be solved with a pre-depend, but obviously
we do not want to use one here.
I think that just "text -x MAKEDEV" is an acceptable solution.
Any other comments?

But ... makedev is Priority: required, even in sid. And Policy says
that removing a package marked as required "may cause your system to
become totally broken and you may not even be able to use dpkg to put
things back, so only do so if you know what you are doing". udev is
still merely optional.

I think it can always rely on /sbin/MAKEDEV being there.

It's time to start making the changes needed in a world where makedev is
optional and udev is required.

That seems premature. Right now, ppp is broken and won't install on sid
because of this change. It would have worked fine with /sbin/MAKEDEV
because makedev (being required) is configured and installed before ppp.

So could you revert this change and use /sbin/MAKEDEV instead for the
moment, then work with whoever needs to care to make udev a required
package?
