Bug#520937: pbuilder --execute fails in a i386 builder on a amd64 host started from a 64bit shell

[Andreas Beckmann]

Package: pbuilder
Version: 0.186
Severity: normal

Hi,


sudo pbuilder execute --basetgz /tmp/base-sid-i386.tgz -- \
    /bin/echo hello world

fails with:

I: Building the build Environment
I: extracting base tarball [/tmp/base-sid-i386.tgz]
I: creating local configuration
I: copying local configuration
I: mounting /proc filesystem
I: mounting /dev/pts filesystem
I: Mounting /var/cache/apt/archives
I: policy-rc.d already exists
chroot: cannot run command `/run': No such file or directory
I: unmounting /var/cache/apt/archives filesystem
I: unmounting dev/pts filesystem
I: unmounting proc filesystem
I: cleaning the build env
I: removing directory /tmp/pbuilder/build/10224 and its subdirectories

when started on a amd64 host. The base-sid-i386.tgz builder builds
packages without problems on the same machine, only --execute does fail.
Running the same command from a i386 schroot session on the same machine
using the same base-sid-i386.tgz works flawless.
