adding a hook which adds /dev/random and /dev/urandom before package
configuration fixes this problem.

Is this the info you were asking for?

In a maybe related note: after filing this bug I also saw the configuration of
openssh-server fail because of a missing /dev/random. But I'm sure this used to
work earlier (about half a year ago) as I was calling
/usr/share/multistrap/device-table.pl in my setupscript and at least in the
past that used to be enough (and I don't think that openssh-server did not
require /dev/random to generate its private keys in the past).  Was the point
at which setupscripts are executed maybe changed in one of the recent
multistrap releases?

Anyway, both my problems are now fixed by creating the respective device nodes
in a native hook before configuration.

Maybe you want to add a jessie.conf with the right hook to multistrap just as
there is a sid.conf because I imagine that multistrap-ing Jessie might be
desired by more people than just me until Stretch is released?

Thanks!

cheers, josch
