Also linking to base-files as it seems the problem is happening because of the /run transition.
In theory /run should be the tmpfs run directory, replacing /var/run. To be compatible with packages using /var/run directly, the transition should still make /var/run available to the system, but bind mounted to /run. The problem here is that the directory /var/run is not being created anymore, as a side effect of base-files 6.3ubuntu3 package update. As this directory should still exist anyway (to be used while bind mounting to run), I believe it makes sense to still create it at base-files, so it's not going to break packages like libc6 and upstart. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/807974 Title: debootstrap fails to install libc6 installing oneiric from natty To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/base-files/+bug/807974/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
