I've just replicated it on a random 12.04.4 server vm
My debootstrap command:
# debootstrap precise ./chroot
Then use the python commands as listed above, and the same error
appears.
I've attached the output of the find command you requested
I also took this command, grep'd on ^d to filter directories, and did a
diff against the same output on a trusty host with a trusty debootstrap.
They have the same directories.
========================================
This is the same python commands run on the trusty host/trusty chroot (ie, how
the precise output should look):
>>> import apt_pkg
>>> import apt
>>> apt_pkg.init_config()
>>> apt_pkg.config.set('RootDir', '/media/fll/chroot/')
>>> apt_pkg.config.set('APT::Architecture', 'amd64')
>>> apt_pkg.init_system()
>>> apt_pkg.Cache(apt.progress.base.OpProgress())
<apt_pkg.Cache object at 0x7f1fe1298518>
>>>
========================================
Output from precise 12.04.4 host with precise chroot:
>>> import apt_pkg
>>> import apt
>>> apt_pkg.init_config()
>>> apt_pkg.config.set('RootDir',
... '/root/chroot/')
>>> apt_pkg.config.set('APT::Architecture', 'amd64')
>>> apt_pkg.init_system()
>>> apt_pkg.Cache(apt.progress.base.OpProgress())
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
SystemError: E:Read error - read (21: Is a directory), E:The package lists or
