[buildd-tools-devel] Bug#867180: sbuild: autopkgtest/lxc: cannot create /autopkgtest-virt-dummy-location/etc/group: Directory nonexistent

[Julian Andres Klode]

Package: sbuild
Version: 0.73.0-4
Severity: normal

I tried running sbuild with that autopkgtest stuff, like this (IIRC):
 --chroot-mode=autopkgtest --autopkgtest-virt-server-opt=sid 
where sid was the name of the lxc container. The result was:

sbuild (Debian sbuild) 0.73.0 (23 Dec 2016) on jak-x230

sh: 1: cannot create /autopkgtest-virt-dummy-location/etc/group: Directory nonexistent
E: Failed to create group sbuild
Failed to set up chroot
