I've gotten similar problems caused by having binfmt-support installed into my VM image. Adding the following to unmount_dev_proc in /usr/lib/python2.6/dist-packages/VMBuilder/plugins/ubuntu/dapper.py fixes my problem:
run_cmd('umount', '%s/proc/sys/fs/binfmt_misc' % self.destdir) My guess is that there are other filesystems getting mounted under /proc as well that are causing this issue. I don't know what the package policy is, but I would think that vmbuilder is working as expected, but the packages are not, as they are apparently mounting filesystems on installation even when they are not supposed to run their postexec (at least, from what I can tell from vmbuilder). -- vmbuilder fails when adding package 'ubuntu-desktop' https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/497258 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to vm-builder in ubuntu. -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs
