[PATCH] sbuild-chroot/sbuild-chroot-host: enable apt-utils only for bookworm

[Srinuvasan Arjunan]

From: Srinuvasan A <srinuvasan.a@siemens.com>

In downstream layer we try to cross-building packages for bullseye,
but it throws the below error:

| Reading package lists...
| Building dependency tree...
| Package apt-utils is not available, but is referred to by another package.
| This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
| is only available from another source
| However the following packages replace it:
|   apt:armhf apt
|
| E: Package 'apt-utils' has no installation candidate
| WARNING: exit code 100 from a shell command.

I hope the APT resolver (/usr/lib/apt/solvers/apt) only demands for
bookworm, hence it's enabled based on BASE_DISTRO_CODENAME.

This is wrong because you want to say >= bookworm and all affected
ubuntus and raspbians. If distro names need to be listed rather list
the old ones currently supported in isar. But a list is just hard to
maintain, even if it has to shrink over time instead of grow.

Are you maybe not running against a real/full debian mirror?

apt-utils is available for bullseye
https://packages.debian.org/bullseye/apt-utils
and for buster if you want
https://packages.debian.org/buster/apt-utils

both including armhf

What you describe here would have been found by CI.

I suggest you rebuild your partial mirror and include that package, or
carry that patch in your layer.

   Yes i  am not using a real/full debian mirror, i found that my mirror
doesn't have that package, let's try to include that one.
   Thanks,
