[Bug 2060615] [NEW] [noble] two versions of perl-modules are published, breaking pbuilder/debootstrap

[Martin Pitt]

Public bug reported:

For the last two weeks, building noble VM images for our CI has been
broken. Most of it was uninstallability due to the xz reset, but for the
last three days, `pbuilder --create` has failed [2] because it gets perl
and perl-modules-5.38 in two different versions:

2024-04-08 08:47:08 URL:http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/p/perl/perl-base_5.38.2-3.2build2_amd64.deb [1822564/1822564] -> "/var/cache/pbuilder/aptcache//perl-base_5.38.2-3.2build2_amd64.deb" [1]
2024-04-08 08:47:09 URL:http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/p/perl/perl-modules-5.38_5.38.2-3_all.deb [3110080/3110080] -> "/var/cache/pbuilder/aptcache//perl-modules-5.38_5.38.2-3_all.deb" [1]

and then trying to configure the packages blows up. The root cause is
that perl-modules has *two* versions published:


# curl -s http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/noble/main/binary-amd64/Packages.xz|xzgrep -A5 'Package: perl-modules-'
Package: perl-modules-5.38
Architecture: all
Version: 5.38.2-3.2build2
Multi-Arch: foreign
Priority: optional
Build-Essential: yes
--
Package: perl-modules-5.38
Architecture: all
Version: 5.38.2-3
Multi-Arch: foreign
Priority: optional
Build-Essential: yes

While apt is clever enough to pick the right one, debootstrap isn't. Can
you please remove the old perl-modules-5.38 5.38.2-3 from noble?

Thanks!
