Package: debootstrap Version: 1.0.59 Severity: minor Tags: patch Dear Maintainer,
Using option foreign with the variant fakechroot fails at the second stage with an error : $ fakechroot fakeroot -s .fakeroot.state debootstrap --variant=fakechroot --foreign jessie my_chroot $ fakechroot fakeroot -i .fakeroot.state -s .fakeroot.state chroot my_chroot /debootstrap/debootstrap --second-stage $ echo $? 1 $ cat my_chroot/debootstrap/debootstrap.log gpgv: Signature made Sat Mar 15 08:55:54 2014 UTC using RSA key ID 46925553 gpgv: Good signature from "Debian Archive Automatic Signing Key (7.0/wheezy) <[email protected]>" ln: failed to create symbolic link '/dev': File exists >From the error message : the unpriviledged user is not allowed to replace >/proc or /dev. After a chroot command, fakechroot diverts access to /dev, /proc or /sys to the corresponding directories under the real root (ie /dev, /sys and /proc on the host). The error occurs at second_stage_install in functions setup_devices and setup_proc_fakechroot (file /usr/share/debootstrap/scripts/sid lines 61 and 69, and file /usr/share/debootstrap/functions lines 913 and 949) In this case, it would be better to set up proc and the devices before invoking chroot ie at the first stage. The following patch partially revert commit d3518b9c7e4f693562d99ec4c15bb009b456603b in version 1.0.34 (see also [1]). Then fakechroot fakeroot -s .fakeroot.state debootstrap --variant=fakechroot --foreign jessie my_chroot fakechroot fakeroot -i .fakeroot.state -s .fakeroot.state chroot my_chroot /debootstrap/debootstrap --second-stage ... I: Base system installed successfully. moi@debirf-dominicain:~$ echo $? 0 Thank you for your comments or corrections !
