I've now found the reason for this problem. The script "/usr/bin/lh_chroot_devpts" unmounts "chroot/dev/pts" only if the file or directory "chroot/dev/pts/0" is existing.
On my computer there isn't any "chroot/dev/pts/0" file/directory when lh_build runs. So "chroot/dev/pts" is never unmounted and when lh_build tries to mount "chroot/dev/pts" again (after the output: "P: Begin copying chroot P: This may take a while"), the mount-command breaks. I know, the hack I recommended 2 days ago in a mail to Joe Ruddy doesn't really solve the problem. (Especially because "grep" finds a "/dev/pts"-string not only if "devpts-live" is already mounted, but also if "/dev/pts" is mounted on the host-system by default. Therefore my hack causes that "devpts-live" will NEVER be mounted.) I think it's better to change the unmounting-routine at line 80 in /usr/bin/lh_chroot_devpts from: ... if [ -e chroot/dev/pts/0 ] ... to: ... if [ -n "`mount | grep -E 'devpts-live.*chroot/dev/pts'`" ] ...
