[Buildd-tools-devel] Bug#475515: [schroot] impossible to use loopback mounts

Package: schroot
Version: 1.1.6-1
Severity: wishlist

--- Please enter the report below this line. ---
schroot checks in schroot-releaselock/schroot-releaselock-main.cc that
the configured block device is really a block device, failing if not so:

  if (!S_ISBLK(statbuf.st_mode))
    throw error(this->opts->device, DEVICE_NOTBLOCK);

This breaks for me as I'd like to mount a loopback filesystem by specifying
"-o loop" in the mount options, so I'm currently doing the mount manually.
