I think "E: unable to pick chroot mode automatically (use --mode for manual selection)" gives a better clue. You runner needs to run privileged containers for being able to run (sbuild+)unshare. Yeah, that is not idea for a 'docker' gitalb-runner executor in a locally shared runner. > 2) How can I increase or how can we manage to build packages that needs a > lot of time to be built? The Salsa CI team needs to reintroduce the ccache support, that would probably be useful here. In the meantime, please reach out to the salsa admins to see if they could help. Cheers, -- S
