Package: fakeroot
Version: 1.14.4-1
Severity: normal
Hi,
running:
$ fakeroot fakechroot /usr/sbin/debootstrap --variant=fakechroot sid bla
(something like this is used by debirf to create the initramfs)
currently fails with:
preparing to replace coreutils 8.1-1 (using .../coreutils_8.1-1_i386.deb) ...
Unpacking replacement coreutils ...
dpkg: ../../src/archives.c:754: tarobject: Assertion `r == stab.st_size' failed.
Aborted (core dumped)
The code in dpkg that fails is:
> if (r < 0)
> r = readlink(fnamevb.buf, symlinkfn.buf, symlinkfn.size);
> if (r < 0)
> ohshite(_("unable to read link `%.255s'"), ti->Name);
> assert(r == stab.st_size);
Running the same without fakeroot (as root) works as expected. Any
ideas?
Cheers,
-- Guido
