Build failing, potentially Python?

[annevk]

So https://travis-ci.org/github/whatwg/html/builds/669108048 ends on

E: Unable to locate package python-pip
The command '/bin/sh -c apt-get update &&     apt-get install -y ca-certificates curl rsync git unzip     fp-compiler fp-units-fcl fp-units-net libc6-dev             default-jre                                                 libfontconfig1 libgomp1 libxml2                             python2.7 python-pip                                        fonts-dejavu fonts-droid-fallback fonts-liberation fonts-symbola fonts-unfonts-core' returned a non-zero code: 100

and the same after retrying.

We have this:

html-build/ci-deploy/Dockerfile

Lines 3 to 11 in e129a13

	FROM debian:sid
	RUN apt-get update && \
	apt-get install -y ca-certificates curl rsync git unzip \
	fp-compiler fp-units-fcl fp-units-net libc6-dev \
	default-jre \
	libfontconfig1 libgomp1 libxml2 \
	python2.7 python-pip \
	fonts-dejavu fonts-droid-fallback fonts-liberation fonts-symbola fonts-unfonts-core

…so it’s trying to install python-pip from the "sid" distribution of Debian. But if you go to https://packages.debian.org/sid/python-pip, the document there says:

Package not available in this suite.

…which means, I guess, that Debian recently removed the python-pip package from "sid".

https://packages.debian.org/source/testing/python-pip also shows “Package not available”.

https://packages.debian.org/source/stable/python-pip (buster) has it, though.

So I guess we could try changing FROM debian:sid to FROM debian:stable — though I’m guessing the reason we had it set to FROM debian:sid to begin with is that some of the other packages we need to install are only in sid. Or at least they were only in sid when we added them to the apt install invocation in that Docker file. But maybe by this time, they’re all in stable.

I’ll try changing the Dockerfile locally to FROM debian:stable, and see if it builds successfully.
