As stated in the upstream report, the bug is really caused by /bin/sh missing in the supermin appliance. This was fixed upstream in https://github.com/libguestfs/libguestfs/commit/0cca7f9061455d29a7f893e715028cd3e75c19fd and downstream in Debian in https://bugs.debian.org/cgi- bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=889861
The patch applies with minimal fuzz to the version shipped in 18.04, without the aforementioned fix any libguestfs command which require interaction with a binary inside the supermin appliance fails (find, tar-*, even debug commands). ** Bug watch added: Debian Bug tracker #889861 https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=889861 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1777058 Title: virt-make-fs fails with: "libguestfs: error: tar_in: write error on directory: /:" To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libguestfs/+bug/1777058/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
