[Bug 1505670] Re: python exceptions bleeding into stdout
This bug was fixed in the package squid-deb-proxy -
0.8.15ubuntu0.21.04.1
---------------
squid-deb-proxy (0.8.15ubuntu0.21.04.1) hirsute; urgency=medium
* apt-avahi-discover: write errors to stderr instead
of stdout so that stdout can be captured correctly.
Thanks to <jasonpepas@xxxxxxxxx>. Note that this is
being fixed differently (stderr and not syslog)
in the stable releases. LP: #1505670.

Bug description:
[Impact]
As @cell explains, the problem here is that the errors are going to
stdout, not to stderr. This means apt's Acquire::http::ProxyAutoDetect
is not able to figure out what the proxy URL is.
[Test Plan]
The idea is to create a VM with several interfaces, to cache them
plus to check configuration and do the discovery. Here you can see the
test for Focal, but it has been the same behaviour for Hirsute, Bionic
and Impish.
Note: In comment #22 there's a very straightforward test (Impish)
without the need for extra ifaces.
Steps to reproduce (thanks to @cpaelzer and @sergiodj):
#0
# On the test Host install apt-cacher-ng
# you need to do so before creating the guest VM to propagate
# and configure correctly when spawned
$ sudo apt install apt-cacher-ng
# 1
# On the Host, create the IPv4 addresses and the VM. Stop the VM to
# attach the ifaces and start again the VM to log in.
$ for i in 1 2 3 4; do lxc network create testnet${i}; done
$ lxc network list
$ lxc launch ubuntu-daily:focal test-bug1505670-focal --vm
$ lxc stop test-bug1505670-focal
$ for i in 1 2 3 4; do lxc network attach testnet${i} test-bug1505670-focal; done
$ lxc start test-bug1505670-focal
$ lxc shell test-bug1505670-focal
# Now at the VM, install prereq packages
$ sudo apt update
$ sudo apt install avahi-utils squid-deb-proxy-client
#3
# check if all are interfaces are configured
$ ip a
# (you might need to edit netplan or E/N/I to e.g. dhcp on all of
them) to have the following content (check the names of your
interfaces from the 'ip a' command above and change them if needed):
$ vim /etc/netplan/50-cloud-init.yaml

[Where problems could occur]
As the change itself redirects the errors to the proper logs using
the proper output flow (stderr), the risk of losing any kind of
information is avoided as well as the risk to produce any kind of
interference with the rest of the system. It uses standard python
calls to do it, so it doesn't have to rely on anything in particular.

The change is cherry-picked from upstream for fixing this bug

proxy/commit/604ba3f98beff25a8fd51783d3ffc4db5e987dab (Thanks to @mvo)

P.S. I'm (paelzer) not entirely sure we need "multiple" IPs an
announced but down entry might be enough, but we want to stick close
to what was reported.

I get the following error when running the discovery script on the
command line.

The last line still returns the proper proxy URI so as far as I can
tell things are still working. The IP 10.1.2.3 is for an n2n VPN.
This is on trusty with version 0.8.6ubuntu1.
To trigger the bug the environment setup needs to be in a specific way.
It seems for the problem to occur it need more than one host/IP discovered via avahi. This can be probed via $ avahi-browse -kprtf _apt_proxy._tcp
and e.g. the common LXD setup of IPv4 + ipv6 is NOT enough to trigger it.
TODO: a sample output of the above command in an affected environment
could be helpful.
TODO: if possible outlining how the environment can be configured to
have this multi host/IP reply in avahi would be helpful as well.
