Bug Description

Hi there,

On current mantic, I cannot use autopkgtest-build-lxd to create a noble LXD runner:

$ autopkgtest-build-lxd ubuntu-daily:noble
Detected local apt proxy, using http://10.235.222.1:3142 as container proxy
Creating autopkgtest-prepare-nDq
Starting autopkgtest-prepare-nDq
Created symlink /<email address hidden> → /dev/null.
Container finished booting. Distribution Ubuntu, release noble, architecture amd64
Running setup script /usr/share/autopkgtest/setup-commands/setup-testbed...
awk: fatal: cannot open file `/etc/apt/sources.list' for reading: No such file or directory
sh: Attempting to set up Debian/Ubuntu apt sources automatically
Failed to auto-detect apt mirror; set $MIRROR explicitly

I'm guessing this is related to deb822?

For the record: since apparently I had some kind of local modification of usr/bin/autopkgtest-build-lxd I tried after reinstalling the package, to similar results. (and I can't remember what my modifications were...)

autopkgtest doesn't support deb822 at all. It requires lots of changes.

FWIW I am currently working on adding deb822 support to autopkgtest and will open the PR soon.

autopkgtest-build-lxd works fine on my mantic system, but I have a related issue where I can not use `--apt-pocket proposed` flag with noble images, because noble images no longer have an /etc/apt/sources.list file.

As workaround using MIRROR=http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu is enough to get things setup.

Indeed, it doesn't work fine with apt-cacher-ng though.
