Package: xvfb
Version: 2:1.7.6-1
Severity: normal
File: /usr/bin/xvfb-run
The -a option to find free X display number is using "while [ -f /tmp/.X$i-lock
]; do" to increase
the $SERVERNUM. When the xvfb-run is run under a different chroot the /tmp is
not shared so the
xvfb-run fails to find available DISPLAY number.
To reproduce run `xvfb-run -a sleep 1000` in a system, than chroot to a
different system and run it again.
One solution would be to increase the $SERVERNUM everytime the Xvfb fails to
run:
--- xvfb-run.orig 2010-04-10 12:18:04.000000000 +0000
+++ xvfb-run 2010-04-10 12:01:42.000000000 +0000

break
elif [ -n "$AUTONUM" ]; then
# The display is in use so try another one (if '-a' was specified).
+ SERVERNUM=$(($SERVERNUM + 1))
SERVERNUM=$(find_free_servernum)
continue
fi
