(1) /proc/self/ns/user exists, and (2) /proc/sys/kernel/unpriviledged_userns_clone D.N.E Ideas on the best approach to allow the build to succeed? I also have had issues with qemu, so it makes sense that vm/container stuff both have issues. I have a feeling its due to the grsec kernel. https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Grsecurity_Patchset talks a bit about userspace/namespace hardening + issues with xen and virtbox. Going to reboot with an lts kernel and try again. Will post update... Best, Dylan Best, Dylan
