Hi, The "filesystem" package is part of a centos base installation and is uninstallable in an lxc container (see pasted output below) due to lacking access rights to /sys ... I'm not sure that this is even crucial, as the container seems to work just fine, but downstream installations fail and I want to exclude that it may be traceable to this ...
So: how may this be circumventable? Should I be posting this on a centos list? Thanks for any hints. Sincerely, Joh PROMPT> yum install filesystem Loaded plugins: fastestmirror, priorities Loading mirror speeds from cached hostfile * base: mirror.atrpms.net * updates: ftp.hosteurope.de Setting up Install Process Resolving Dependencies --> Running transaction check ---> Package filesystem.x86_64 0:2.4.30-3.el6 will be installed --> Finished Dependency Resolution Dependencies Resolved ====================================================================================================================================== Package Arch Version Repository Size ====================================================================================================================================== Installing: filesystem x86_64 2.4.30-3.el6 base 1.0 M Transaction Summary ====================================================================================================================================== Install 1 Package(s) Total download size: 1.0 M Installed size: 0 Is this ok [y/N]: y Downloading Packages: filesystem-2.4.30-3.el6.x86_64.rpm | 1.0 MB 00:00 Running rpm_check_debug Running Transaction Test Transaction Test Succeeded Running Transaction Installing : filesystem-2.4.30-3.el6.x86_64 1/1 Error unpacking rpm package filesystem-2.4.30-3.el6.x86_64 error: unpacking of archive failed on file /sys: cpio: chown Verifying : filesystem-2.4.30-3.el6.x86_64 1/1 Failed: filesystem.x86_64 0:2.4.30-3.el6 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Live Security Virtual Conference Exclusive live event will cover all the ways today's security and threat landscape has changed and how IT managers can respond.
