Bug Description

I tried creating a basic Ubuntu arm chroot with debootstrap and it failed. This leaves apt in a broken state in the chroot.

sudo qemu-debootstrap --arch armhf vivid ~/chroot/ http://ports.ubuntu.com/

This didn't happen with 14.10.

I see this when doing a live-build for vivid. Live building utopic completes just fine.

FWIW, using a '--variant=minbase' works around the issue with qemu-debootstrap.

I can also confirm this bug when using debootstrap to build an ARM arch of 15.04. Building 14.04 instead works fine. Definitely a bug in 15.04.

Will this be an SRU for 15.04?
