Public bug reported:
When running Ubuntu Resolute in Docker (using the ubuntu:resolute Docker
image), since about three days ago, I cannot create tar archives of
/usr/share anymore. This breaks a continuous integration workflow where
we automatically build Debian/Ubuntu packages.
What happens is that for some reason, tar complains that it cannot stat
/usr/share. Here is an example command that reproduces the problem:
# tar -c /usr/share > /dev/null
tar: Removing leading `/' from member names
tar: /usr/share: Cannot stat: Function not implemented
tar: Exiting with failure status due to previous error
This happens with package versions 1.35+dfsg-4ubuntu0.2 (the one
currently shipped in the Docker image) and 1.35+dfsg-4ubuntu0.3 (the
one installed by apt update).
However, downgrading to 1.35+dfsg-4 fixes the problem and gives the
expected output:
# tar -c /usr/share > /dev/null
tar: Removing leading `/' from member names
So this seems to point to a regression introduced by an Ubuntu patch.
