that's the culprit. Try using --mode=unshare. With fakechroot I see the errors that you see.

Yes, but the reason might be a similar one. Fakechroot works by preloading libfakechroot.so and if any maintainer script messes with the environment variables, then fakechroot gets disabled for that process. > > Can you share the whole script that you used for these results? > > Sure, the modified script is attached. > > As I said before, the script is what I am trying to develop, based on > your suggestions. > It is still experimental, needs to be improved in many aspects, and has > not yet produced any working QEMU image (!).

One suggestion would be to throw in a "set -e" at the beginning because otherwise you'd have to check the exit status of each program execution manually. Thanks! cheers, josch
