--- Begin Message ---Subject: Support building image without root. Package: live-build Version: 5.0~a8-1 Severity: normal Tags: upstream, patch Dear Maintainer, At the momemt I build my live build images inside a privileged docker container with Gitlab CI Multirunner. I have attached a volume (/cache), and before I start "lb build" I symlink it. The problem is cache.sh think it the same device, so it try to "hard link" copy, which of course don't work. ( Invalid cross-device link). The problem seems to be that stat without a last slash, don't follow the symlink, but only check there the link is stored. See for you self. [kristian@arch-hp-laptop ~]$ mkdir test [kristian@arch-hp-laptop ~]$ stat --printf '%d\n' test 2051 [kristian@arch-hp-laptop ~]$ ln -s /tmp symlink [kristian@arch-hp-laptop ~]$ stat --printf '%d\n' /tmp 33 [kristian@arch-hp-laptop ~]$ stat --printf '%d\n' symlink 2051 [kristian@arch-hp-laptop ~]$ stat --printf '%d\n' symlink/ 33 Patch attached.
