Public bug reported: I have a work flow (curtin installation) that does something to the affect of: mount $DEVICE /target mount --bind /dev /target/dev chroot /target apt-get update umount /target/dev umount /target/
With xenial, I started having failures on the umount of /target/dev because of open file handles. An lsof showed me that /usr/lib/update-notifier/update-motd-updates-available had open file handles on /dev/null and apt-check had handles on /dev/urandom. I admit that part of this is my fault, because we do a selective apt-get update (only pulling deb sources, not deb-src). As a result, when /usr/lib/update-notifier/update-motd-updates-available there was possibly more work to be done then would normally have to be done... not sure on that. For the record, what we do is in http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~curtin- dev/curtin/trunk/view/head:/curtin/util.py#L486 (apt_update method).
