[Bug 1791437] Re: Can't use pbuilder inside simple lxc container?

[Dan Kegel]

Correction: the repro script was

#!/bin/sh
set -ex
sudo apt install dh-make-golang
DIST=bionic git-pbuilder create dh-make-golang github.com/gomatic/renderizer
dh-make-golang github.com/gomatic/renderizer
cd renderizer/
gbp buildpackage --git-dist=bionic --git-pbuilder

Title:
  Can't use pbuilder inside simple lxc container?

Status in pbuilder package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  On Ubuntu 18.04, I was trying to reproduce a problem, so I spun up an
  lxc container and ran my reproduce script in it, i.e.

  #!/bin/sh
  set -ex
  sudo apt install dh-make-golang
  DIST=bionic git-pbuilder create
  dh-make-golang github.com/gomatic/renderizer
  cd renderizer/
  gbp buildpackage --git-dist=bionic --git-pbuilder

  This failed with

  + DIST=bionic git-pbuilder create
  I: Invoking pbuilder
  I: forking: pbuilder create --buildplace /var/cache/pbuilder/base-bionic.cow --mirror http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu --distribution bionic --no-targz --extrapackages cowdancer
  W: /home/ubuntu/.pbuilderrc does not exist
  I: Running in no-targz mode
  I: Distribution is bionic.

  mknod: /var/cache/pbuilder/base-bionic.cow/test-dev-null: Operation not permitted
  E: Cannot install into target '/var/cache/pbuilder/base-bionic.cow' mounted with noexec or nodev

  Sad face.  Not sure who's at fault here, is it me, debootstrap,
  pbuilder, or gbp?
