The code was failing here:
93 capacity=$(vboxmanage showhdinfo "${final_img}" |
94 awk '$0 ~ /^Logical size:/ { printf("%i\n", $3 * 1024 *
1024) }') &&
95 [ -n "${capacity}" ] || error "unable to get capacity -
capacity reported as ${capacity}"
Which produces:
vmbuilder@nectarine:~/ec2-daily/cloudimg-build-launcher.20110906.GTwDj7$
vboxmanage showhdinfo natty-server-cloudimg-amd64-disk1.vmdk
WARNING: The character device /dev/vboxdrv does not exist.
Please install the virtualbox-ose-dkms package and the appropriate
headers, most likely linux-headers-server.
You will not be able to start VMs until this problem is fixed.

A "strace" of the command as the vmbuilder user showed that the VMBuilder did
not have permssion to the the .VirtualBox directory:

Changing /home/vmbuilder/.VirtualBox/ to be owned by vmbuilder fixed the
issue. Manually initiated build.
