Bug#346048: quota fails in postinst
severity 346048 normal tag 346048 unreproducible tag 346048 moreinfo thanks Severity: grave Justification: renders package unusable I beg to disagree because not being able to use a package in a chroot does not render it completely unusable. After all most users will use it on a real system. It should nevertheless work of course. When attempting to install quota into a new sid chroot, the following error occurs: Setting up quota (3.13-4) ... *** glibc detected *** free(): invalid pointer: 0x080923a0 *** Could you please give me more info? How did you create the chroot? What data do you have in /etc, in particular in /etc/fstab? Could you please run the postinst script directly to see which statement creates the error message? I have to admit that I did not create a new chroot but updated one to sid just today. But my chroot installs quota nicely.
