Package: debootstrap Version: 1.0.81 Severity: wishlist Control: affects -1 fakechroot dbus debirf
On a very minimal/lean system running debian sid, i tried to do the
following as a non-privileged user:
fakechroot fakeroot /usr/sbin/debootstrap --variant=fakechroot --include=dbus
sid ~/target
the result was a failed install:
[...]
W: Failure while configuring base packages. This will be re-attempted up to
five times.
W: See /home/dkg/target/debootstrap/debootstrap.log for details (possibly the
package dbus is at fault)
1 dkg@demo:~$
looking in ~/target/debootstrap/debootstrap.log shows the following
error message repeated five times:
1 dkg@demo:~$ tail -n 6 ~/target/debootstrap/debootstrap.log
Setting up dbus (1.10.8-1) ...
dbus-uuidgen: error while loading shared libraries: libdbus-1.so.3: cannot open
shared object file: No such file or directory
dpkg: error processing package dbus (--configure):
subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 127
Errors were encountered while processing:
dbus
0 dkg@demo:~$
weirdly, dbus-uuidgen works fine under fakeroot and fakechroot, which is
what makes me suspect debootstrap being the cause of the problem:
0 dkg@demo:~$ fakechroot fakeroot chroot ~/target dbus-uuidgen
c53d40afb5e8a5a5788f7c4e573267bf
0 dkg@demo:~$
This also has an effect on debirf, since debirf depends on debootstrap's
fakechroot functionality to build an iso as a non-privileged user.
This is reproducible from an amd64 host system with the following packages:
0 dkg@demo:~$ dpkg -l fakeroot fakechroot debootstrap libdbus-1-3
