[Bug 2109853] Re: [SRU] Make sbuild usable for 'user@xxxxxxx' users

 

Sorry for the cruft that made it into the Oracular upload.
Thanks for spotting, I found it hiding in the debdiff and confirm my mistake.

I reworked it.

That looks more like it should be.
Uploaded again.

Title:
  [SRU] Make sbuild usable for 'user@xxxxxxx' users

  Fix Released
Status in sbuild source package in Noble:
  Fix Committed
Status in sbuild source package in Oracular:
  In Progress
Status in sbuild source package in Plucky:
  Fix Committed

Bug description:
  [Impact]

  With the increasing adoption of tools like authd, it's very likely
  that Linux desktop users in corporate environments end up with their
  usernames like 'user@xxxxxxx', what doesn't play nice with
  sbuild/schroot. Without properly escaping the username, the '@'
  character ends up being interpreted as a string interpolation what
  breaks the lock_chroot() subroutine.

  Fore more information about the issue, please check the upstream bug:
  https://salsa.debian.org/debian/sbuild/-/issues/4

  
  [ Test plan ]

  1. Make sure to have a user account containing the '@' character in its name, such as 'user@xxxxxxx'.
  2. Make sure to have a schroot environment ready. `mk-sbuild oracular` for example to create one for oracular. Note: the mk-sbuild command is provided by the ubuntu-dev-tools package, so make sure to have it installed.
  3. Retrieve the sources of a simple package: `pull-lp-source hello noble`
  4. Build the binary package with sbuild: `cd hello-2.10/ && sbuild -d noble-amd64` (adjust the schroot environment name according to your computer's architecture)

  Expected results without the patches herein proposed is a failure
  like:

  ```
  I: NOTICE: Log filtering will replace 'var/run/schroot/mount/plucky-amd64-c9a17ed0-5932-4df1-ad6e-d4df512a37b0' with '<<CHROOT>>'
  Possible unintended interpolation of @org in string at -e line 50.
  Global symbol "@org" requires explicit package name (did you forget to declare "my @org"?) at -e line 50.
  Execution of -e aborted due to compilation errors.
  E: Error locking chroot session: skipping livecd-rootfs
  ```

  Building the package should proceed normally with the patches applied.


  [ Where problems could occur ]

  The scope of the changes herein proposed is so small and self-contained that I 
  don't expect any issues arising from it under any circumstances.

  
  [ Other Info ]

  I'm skipping 'Questing', as I expect it to receive the fix via debian merges,
  sbuild version 0.89.2 (just accepted into Debian unstable) contains this patch (alongside other stuff).
