[Bug 1760146] Re: --extrapackages are not installed

[James Clarke]

Please look carefully at the log; you should see that it did install
eatmydata:

> The following additional packages will be installed:

However, pbuilder now has an EATMYDATA option in pbuilderrc, and if
that's not set, eatmydata is *removed* from the chroot on running a
`pbuilder update`, unless you keep specifying it with
--extrapackages/EXTRAPACKAGES. But that's not what this bug is about,
and your claim in this report is demonstrably false.

Title:
  --extrapackages are not installed

Status in pbuilder package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  In Ubuntu Xenial 16.04 I used to use the attached script to create a
  debootstrap system. It additionally installed eatmydata package.
  However in Ubuntu Bionic 18.04 (today's daily build) it doesn't
  install eatmydata anymore. it looks like it ignores the
  --extrapackages option.
