[buildd-tools-devel] Bug#557197: schroot -b doesn't work for chroots with type=block-device

[Evan Broder]

Package: schroot
Version: 1.3.1-1
Severity: important

If I use schroot -b to create a session of a chroot with
type=block-device, I get a valid chroot session name back, and the
chroot is setup, but it's not recorded in /var/lib/schroot/session,
and I can't then later run it.

debuild:~# cat /etc/schroot/chroot.d/device

This doesn't occur with type=directory chroots.
