[elbe-users] pbuilder does not populate the package cache

[Ralf Schlatterbeck]

I've now further debugged this.
The error-message comes from the 'Cache' module of the 'apt' python
package. My package is not in the package cache.

Am I doing something wrong, i.e., has the behaviour of pbuilder changed
so that generated packages are no longer in the package cache?
Is there a way with elbe to insert a locally-generated package
explicitly into the package cache?

Puilder has grown an new --cross option. Can someone shed some light
what this option does? So far my understanding is that the whole point
of elbe pbuilder is to build a package for another architecture?

Maybe this behaviour (that the newly-built package is not in the package
cache after building) has something to do with the --cross option?

Note that I'm unable to downgrade because previous elbe packages (12.4
worked) seem to be no longer available.

I've opened github issue #283
https://github.com/Linutronix/elbe/issues/283

Thanks
Ralf
