Subject: live-build: Support building image without root.
Package: live-build
Version: 5.0~a8-1
Severity: wishlist
Tags: upstream
Dear Maintainer,
At the momemt there seems to be no way to build a live image without root.
In our environment we start "lb build" everytime a commit is pushed to our Git
repo.
But as live build reguire root.
Everyone with access to the Git repo in practice have root access on the build
server, and can install malicious software.
Trying running lb build with fakeroot and fakechroot result in:
lb config
. /etc/fakechroot/debootstrap.env
fakeroot fakechroot lb build | tee fake.log
fake.log uploaded here: http://sprunge.us/eWUZ
debootstrap.log uploaded here: http://sprunge.us/jdfe
Regards Kristian Klausen
