[buildd-tools-devel] Bug#689078: schroot: CHROOT_ALIAS/SCHROOT_ALIAS_NAME doesn't refer to alias

[Vagrant Cascadian]

Package: schroot
Version: 1.6.3-1
Severity: normal

CHROOT_ALIAS and SCHROOT_ALIAS_NAME does not refer to the alias, but to the 
actual chroot name.

  vagrant at prl:~$ schroot -c default
  (sid-aufs)vagrant at prl:~$
  (sid-aufs)vagrant at prl:~$ echo $SCHROOT_ALIAS_NAME
  chroot:sid-aufs
  (sid-aufs)vagrant at prl:~$ echo $SCHROOT_CHROOT_NAME
  sid-aufs

default is listed as an alias of sid-aufs in my configuration.

I would have expected SCHROOT_ALIAS_NAME=default or chroot:default.

The same holds true for the CHROOT_ALIAS variable used in the 
/etc/schroot/setup.d hooks.

This means I end up cutting and pasting chroot configurations for
squeeze-backports, experimental, etc. rather than just setting them up as
aliases with setup.d hooks to configure the small differences from squeeze or
sid.

Thanks for your work on schroot!


live well,
