Bug#868678: autopkgtest: Support Kali in setup-testbed

[Raphaël Hertzog]

Package: autopkgtest
Version: 4.4
Severity: wishlist
Tags: patch
User: devel at kali.org
Usertags: origin-kali kali-patch

/usr/share/autopkgtest/setup-commands/setup-testbed rewrites
/etc/apt/sources.list in a way that only works with mirrors whose URL
contains "ubuntu" or "debian".

I would like the script to also work for Kali so I propose the following
patch:

 if [ -z "${MIRROR:-}" ]; then
-    MIRROR=`awk '/^deb .*(debian|ubuntu)/ { sub(/\[.*\]/, "", $0); print $2; exit }' "$root/etc/apt/sources.list"`
+    MIRROR=`awk '/^deb .*(debian|ubuntu|kali)/ { sub(/\[.*\]/, "", $0); print $2; exit }' "$root/etc/apt/sources.list"`
 fi
 if [ -z "${RELEASE:-}" ]; then
-    RELEASE=`awk '/^deb .*(debian|ubuntu)/ { sub(/\[.*\]/, "", $0); print $3; exit }' "$root/etc/apt/sources.list"`
+    RELEASE=`awk '/^deb .*(debian|ubuntu|kali)/ { sub(/\[.*\]/, "", $0); print $3; exit }' "$root/etc/apt/sources.list"`
 fi
 if [ "${MIRROR%ubuntu*}" != "$MIRROR" ]; then
     cat << EOF > "$root/etc/apt/sources.list"

But it should probably also be smarter for the benefits of all other derivatives:

- not do anything if $MIRROR or $RELEASE is empty

- rely on /etc/os-release (within the image) to identify the distribution and
  use the first entry in /etc/apt/sources.list to find the mirror to use (that
  way you can have a mirror like http://192.168.1.222:9999/ and still have a
  working setup-testbed even if your ubuntu mirror does not contain the string
  ubuntu)

Cheers,
