I am trying to compile a few 32 bit debs on my 64 bit Lubuntu (21.10 - Impish Indri). The target is Focal though and I have been trying to build the chroot with mk-sbuild.

The command I ran is mk-sbuild focal --arch=i386 --debootstrap-include=eatmydata

But, even after specifically mentioning eat my data, it still stops at:

I: Configuring build-essential...
I: Configuring libc-bin...
W: Failure while configuring base packages.  This will be re-attempted up to five times.
W: See /var/lib/schroot/chroots/focal-i386/debootstrap/debootstrap.log for details (possibly the package eatmydata is at fault)

And, upon checking the log, these are the lines where the problem starts:

After trying both pbuilder and debuild I thought sbuild might be the only viable option to build 32 bit debs on a bit OS. But, it's not easy too.

By the way, the 64 bit build goes fine and doesn't ask for eatmydata at all.

Thank you in advance.

  • "Package libeatmydata1 is not installed" : If that means a missing 32bit version : It's not available https://packages.ubuntu.com/hirsute/libeatmydata1 – Knud Larsen Feb 12 '22 at 11:37
  • @KnudLarsen This is confusing as the build goes fine on Focal. I tried compiling a few debs for Impish on Focal with an Impish chroot. Surprisingly, it is able to build fine. I don't understand why eatmydata isn't available in Impish. Anyways, any ideas on how to bypass this issue? And, I am sorry for the late reply. – Noob YT Feb 14 '22 at 07:16
  • ? You might use the 18.04 package https://packages.ubuntu.com/bionic/libeatmydata1 → i386. – Knud Larsen Feb 14 '22 at 10:21
  • @KnudLarsen How do I add it to the list of packages in mk-sbuild. Had the chroot been built, I could have manually installed it using `sbuild-shell` – Noob YT Feb 15 '22 at 06:56
