** Description changed: + EDIT: I saw this bug report which actually says this is fixed + https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/schroot/+bug/1398569 + but I don't see where the change is supposed to be. + I also saw it's already reported on the debian bug system: + https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=785136 + and git + https://github.com/codelibre-net/schroot/issues/1 + It's not very clear which repository is supposed to be the main one, I guess the debian one. + The kernel changed the name of overlayfs to overlay (see https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/?id=ef94b1864d1ed5be54376404bb23d22ed0481feb ) and added the workdir option to the mount options. The overlay union-type should be added to the allowed list, the 10mount script should be updated to add the workdir option for the overlay union-type, with I suppose a variable CHROOT_UNION_WORKDIR_DIRECTORY and the corresponding schroot configuration option. Additional info: Error when running schroot: schroot --option=union-type=overlay E: /etc/schroot/chroot.d/click-ubuntu-sdk-15.04-armhf: line 12 [click-ubuntu-sdk-15.04-armhf] union-type: Unknown filesystem union type ‘overlay’ Functions with the check: lib/schroot/chroot/facet/fsunion.cc-143- void lib/schroot/chroot/facet/fsunion.cc-144- fsunion::set_union_type (const std::string& type) lib/schroot/chroot/facet/fsunion.cc-145- { lib/schroot/chroot/facet/fsunion.cc-146- if (type == "aufs" || lib/schroot/chroot/facet/fsunion.cc:147: type == "overlayfs" || lib/schroot/chroot/facet/fsunion.cc-148- type == "unionfs" || lib/schroot/chroot/facet/fsunion.cc-149- type == "none") lib/schroot/chroot/facet/fsunion.cc-150- this->union_type = type; lib/schroot/chroot/facet/fsunion.cc-151- else lib/schroot/chroot/facet/fsunion.cc-152- throw error(type, FSUNION_TYPE_UNKNOWN); In the 10mount script: overlayfs) - CHROOT_UNION_MOUNT_OPTIONS="lowerdir=${CHROOT_UNION_UNDERLAY_DIRECTORY},upperdir=${CHROOT_UNION_OVERLAY_DIRECTORY}" + CHROOT_UNION_MOUNT_OPTIONS="lowerdir=${CHROOT_UNION_UNDERLAY_DIRECTORY},upperdir=${CHROOT_UNION_OVERLAY_DIRECTORY}" Steps to reproduce: Try to run a schroot with option union-type=overlay: schroot --option=union-type=overlay I found this issue on Archlinux, and I guess it will eventually apply to Ubuntu when the kernel is updated.
