I'm connecting to the machine via ssh and usually run stuff inside screen. So I tried * ssh, screen, pbuilder * ssh, screen, chroot * ssh, pbuilder * ssh, chroot all with whiptail installed and all with the same result: no "Setting up". I'll test locally on the machine later ... I also tested putting the chroot on a real file system instead of tmpfs - no change. > In any case I don't think this is a problem with dpkg, maybe in the > chroot, the setup or whoever is invoking it, in this case apt, but > let's see. I also tried strace -o foo -ff apt-get install libpfm4-dev and grepping in the foo.* I find the "Setting up" from dpkg, but this seems to be eaten by apt, as I didn't see it on screen. /var/log/apt/term.log also misses these bits: Log started: 2014-10-29 19:55:25 Selecting previously unselected package libpfm4:amd64.

In addition to the "Setting up" messages, also the "Processing triggers" messages seem to be missing sometimes (no testcase). If I install something larger (e.g. libreoffice) I do get (some? all?) "Setting up" messages. Andreas -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact listmas...@lists.debian.org
