Yes, this was due to the Chroot class calling ChrootSetup::basesetup() when the session is created to do the apt update/upgrade. basesetup() depended upon the sbuild user and group existing in the chroot to chown various bits. I've updated sbuild-createchroot to explicitly copy the sbuild user and group into the chroot so that this can't fail. Regards, Roger -- .''`.

You are certainly correct to question the correctness after seeing the error. I will certainly look into fixing this as time allows. > I made a test build and it seems to work well, thanks.

Coin, Quoting Roger Leigh : After completing the chroot creation, it's attempting to run 'apt-get update' and 'apt-get dist-upgrade' inside the chroot. While this fails, the chroot was created successfully, and you should be able to just run 'sbuild-update -ud wheezy' to update the chroot. How would i know by myself? I had a very quick look at the code, and it didn't seem this trivial. When a tool outputs errors and says "Successfully set up" later, i really wonder if it can be trusted. I personally wouldn't upload anything generated in this chroot without rebuilding it or being sure the build environment is not screwed up. I made a test build and it seems to work well, thanks.

After completing the chroot creation, it's attempting to run 'apt-get update' and 'apt-get dist-upgrade' inside the chroot. While this fails, the chroot was created successfully, and you should be able to just run 'sbuild-update -ud wheezy' to update the chroot. This is not to say that there's not a bug here, just that it's not, at least from what I saw reported, a major problem that doesn't have a simple workaround. I'll certainly look into why this is failing; I think the explanation is fairly straightforward: the NSS file copying is done by schroot, but at this point schroot is not yet set up (or even required), so we use sudo instead, and this doesn't involve any file copying. We should probably skip the chown of /build if the sbuild user/group doesn't yet exist. Regards, Roger -- .''`.

Bug#622735: sbuild-createchroot fails to chown /build due to non-existing user & group
Package: sbuild Version: 0.62.2-1 Severity: normal I was only running: $ sbuild-createchroot wheezy wheezy-i386-sbuild http://ftp.debian.org/debian [...] I: Please rename and modify this file as required. I: sudo chroot configuration linked as /etc/sbuild/chroot/wheezy-i386-sbuild. chown: invalid user: `sbuild:sbuild' E: Failed to set sbuild:sbuild ownership on /build Failed to set up chroot E: Error creating chroot session: skipping apt update I: Successfully set up wheezy chroot. I: Run "sbuild-adduser" to add new sbuild users. It looks like the chown is tried while the NSS files have not yet been copied over.
