[buildd-tools-devel] Bug#692202: sbuild: Please mount /dev in chroots by default on kfreebsd

[Arno Töll]

Package: sbuild
Version: 0.63.2-1
Severity: wishlist

As discussed in IRC, sbuild fails to build most packages out of the box on
kfreebsd, because /dev/null is not writable by non-privileged users in the default
choort (which may, or may not be a separate issue in debootstrap). For sbuild the
problem can be solved by adding

proc            /proc           linprocfs   defaults        0       0
dev             /dev            devfs       rw,bind         0       0
dev             /dev/fd         fdescfs     rw,bind         0       0
sys             /sys            linsysfs    defaults        0       0

to the default sbuild profile in /etc/schroot/sbuild/fstab, increasing greatly the
compatibility to Linux specific special case uses. Moreover, this fixes the
/dev/null problem.
