Package build fail in pbuilder about dh-virtualenv HOT 5 CLOSED

I've found the cause of the problem. By default pbuilder is disabling the network during the build phase and this causes the fetch failure by pip. To fix this, you need to edit pbuilderrc (in /etc/ for example) and add

USENETWORK=yes

Sorry for the noise and thanks a lot for your help!

It can be that the pip tries to write some log. You could try directing the pip log to some other writable place by using --extra-pip-arg=--log-file=somepath

Looks like it's trying to write the log in /tmp which should be writable. The issue could be this: pypa/pip#219

I think this is only triggered when pip tries to write a log after some command fails. The root cause (not being able to fetch from PyPI) is a different issue, maybe no network access from the chroot?

Thanks @nailor, I've try this but not luck:

subprocess.CalledProcessError: Command '['/tmp/buildd/scirius-pro-0.9.8/debian/scirius-pro/usr/share/python/scirius-pro/bin/python', '/tmp/buildd/scirius-pro-0.9.8/debian/scirius-pro/usr/share/python/scirius-pro/bin/pip', 'install', '--log=/tmp/tmplE9zpX', '--log-file=/tmp/dh.log', '-r', './requirements.txt']' returned non-zero exit status 1

@marcusb I've found that one too. It may be the same thing. What I don't understand is that entering the pbuilder with login option and running the pip command is working.

Can be an issue with different envs, especially LANG. pip also has problems with encodings in logs (solved in current master).
