Package: sbuild Version: 0.64.2-1 Severity: normal Dear Maintainer,
It's possible that this is mostly a schroot rather than sbuild issue but since at least some of it appears to be sbuild related I'm filing here first. Recently I have started seeing: $ sbuild --dist sid --arch i386 [...] E: 10mount: E: Failed to resolve path “/var/lib/schroot/mount/sid-i386-sbuild-38bcf41e-5a6e-4b07-9a4c-ebb5ab330da4/dev/shm”: Not a directory E: sid-i386-sbuild-38bcf41e-5a6e-4b07-9a4c-ebb5ab330da4: Chroot setup failed: stage=setup-start Chroot setup failed This seems to be due to /dev/shm being a symlink to /run/shm. At first I thought this was due to a recent update in sid/jessie but looking at my existing chroots it seems that this already became a symlink for Wheezy, so I guess it must be a sbuild/schroot change (but I'm not sure what, everything related which I spot in changelog.Debian.gz was many moons ago). My first thought was to change /etc/schroot/sbuild/fstab to remove: -tmpfs /dev/shm tmpfs defaults 0 0 and add +tmpfs /run tmpfs defaults 0 0 This fixed bare invocations of "schroot -c sid-i386-sbuild" but not sbuild which now fails with: $ sbuild --dist sid --arch i386 [...] Failed to create lock file /var/lock/sbuild: No such file or directory E: Error locking chroot session: skipping xss-lock This is because /var/lock is also a symlink (to ../run/lock) and /run/lock does not exist, because of the newly added tmpfs. The chroot filesystems contain a bunch of things, including /run/lock which were created somewhere along the line, but which are shadowed by the tmpfs. Lastly I tried adding at the very end of /etc/schroot/setup.d/10mount: if [ ! -d $CHROOT_PATH/var/lock/ ] ; then mkdir -p $CHROOT_PATH/var/lock chown -R root:sbuild "$CHROOT_PATH/var/lock" chmod -R 02775 "$CHROOT_PATH/var/lock" fi Which fixes things for a Wheezy+ chroot, but due to the change to fstab /dev/shm in Squeeze and earlier will no longer be a tmpfs. I'm not sure how best to fix all kinds of chroot. An alternative to editing /etc/schroot/setup.d/10mount seems to be to list /run/shm in fstab instead of either /dev/shm or /run. This might be better WRT chroots which contain packages which assume /run (or things linked to it) are persistent, but it also has similar issues WRT chroots which have a real /dev/shm and not a symlink (i.e. squeeze).
