following changes are effective on Launchpad's build farm:<br>
<br>
* sbuild (used to build .debs from source packages) uses its schroot<br>
mode to perform chroot operations rather than sudo. This is closer<br>
to how Debian builders behave and to how developers typically run<br>
sbuild interactively, and it means that the inactivity timeout<br>
actually works properly rather than leaving builds in a state where<br>
they have to be cancelled manually.<br>
<br>
There are some small differences in the environment observed from<br>
inside a build, of which the most important are probably that HOME is<br>
now set to a nonexistent directory, and V=1 is set to cause various<br>
build systems to be more verbose (we made this change in 2014 but it<br>
was lost somewhere along the way). See [1] for more details.<br>
<br>
* Snaps and live filesystems are now built in LXD containers rather<br>
than in chroots, laying the groundwork for them to be able to install<br>
snaps as build-dependencies.<br>
<br>
At the moment the only known regressions from this are in some corner<br>
cases of live filesystem building (powerpc and CPC). Let us know if you<br>
see anything else amiss, although as usual please try to reproduce<br>
problems locally before attributing them to the build environment.<br>
