Hi,
While trying to ./configure libguestfs on gentoo fails since it requires
feboostrap or deboostrap
Can this be made optional and not as necessary requirement, since there
are still many useful uses for libguestfs
besides bootstrapping, which can be used on distros like gentoo.
Thanks

You probably want to read this:
http://www.libguestfs.org/guestfs.3.html#state_machine_and_low_level_even...
and this:
http://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-virt/2009-May/msg00003.html
The choices are:
(1) Port febootstrap + yum to Gentoo (not so hard).
(2) Change libguestfs to use portage. (This was already done for the
Debian/debootstrap combo).
(3) Use the binary blobs from another machine, but note that we no
longer build full appliances in the Fedora RPMs.

Did you modify debirf.conf.in? This should
be sid not lenny.

Looks like debootstrap failing. Try by
hand:
mkdir /tmp/test ; cd /tmp/test ; debootstrap --verbose lenny .
http://ftp.debian.org/debian
and see if you get the same error. If so, debootstrap is a shell script
so running it as "sh -x debootstrap ..." might give some more
information what's going wrong. Looks as if there's missing some prefix
before $(TARGET)/dists/lenny/Release.

I assume Piavlo is doing this since he

No actually fakechroot is installed , this is what the libguestfs
installation process does.
I not familiar with deboostrap/debirf internals - any idea why the
installed fakechroot is not being used automatically by debirf?
This is list of files belonging to debirf package on my gentoo system -
i just installed it and did not make any manual configurations.

I not familiar with deboostrap/debirf internals - any idea why the
installed fakechroot is not being used automatically by debirf?
You need to figure
out why debirf thinks you're running as uid 0. Either
you're really doing so or you're running with fakeroot already. You
should do neither of those and it will work:
if [ $(id -u) = '0' ] ; then
cat <<EOF
Warning: You are running debirf as root. There is a potential
for improperly written modules to damage your system.
EOF
if [ "$ROOT_WARNING" = 'true' ] ; then
read -p "Are you sure you wish to continue? [y|N]: " OK;
OK=${OK:=N}
if [ "${OK/y/Y}" != 'Y' ] ; then
failure "aborting."

Actually
I'm running as root , but to be more precise I'm running this
from gentoo emerge/ebuild process which setups proper
sandbox to avoid system damage.
I've had several additional problem i managed to solve, the last one
might need proper solution in deootstrap code - details below:

Actually I'm running as root , but to be more precise I'm running this
from gentoo emerge/ebuild process which setups proper
sandbox to avoid system damage.
I've had several additional problem i managed to solve, the last one
might need proper solution in deootstrap code - details below:

Hi Guido,
I fail to understand what's wrong in in_target_failmsg defined in
/usr/share/debootstrap/functions which is called from in_target function:
in_target_failmsg () {
local code="$1"
local msg="$2"
local arg="$3"
shift; shift; shift
if ! chroot "$TARGET" "$@"; then
warning "$code" "$msg" "$arg"
return 1
fi
return 0
}
I don't understand why the if is entered while:
chroot "$TARGET" "$@"
finishes with 0 exit code?

Me neither. The only thing that could help is to add
some debugging
output to in_target_failsmsg to get the return code, command, etc. Just
to make sure we're not beating a dead horse: this is debootstrap 1.0.15?
/bin/sh is bash?
Cheers,

no i'm at 1.0.13 - is this critical? should i really upgrade to 1.0.15?

Hi Guido,
I fail to understand what's wrong in in_target_failmsg defined in
/usr/share/debootstrap/functions which is called from in_target function:
in_target_failmsg () {
local code="$1"
local msg="$2"
local arg="$3"
shift; shift; shift
if ! chroot "$TARGET" "$@"; then
warning "$code" "$msg" "$arg"
return 1
fi
return 0
}
I don't understand why the if is entered while:
chroot "$TARGET" "$@"
finishes with 0 exit code?
I have not been following this conversation previously, so
I apologize if this has already been mentioned. Guido's patch
also removes the smallyes pipe, which could be the culprit if
dpkg (or a subprocess called by dpkg) wants a tty on stdin.
Does Guido's patch still "solve" the problem if it's written:
- smallyes '' | in_target dpkg --force-depends --install $(debfor
"$@")
+ smallyes '' | chroot $TARGET dpkg --force-depends --install $(debfor
"$@")
or alternatively, does this work as well as Guido's patch:
- smallyes '' | in_target dpkg --force-depends --install $(debfor
"$@")
+ in_target dpkg --force-depends --install $(debfor "$@")

These are good things to track down the problem, thanks! (I still wonder
why it works on Debian though). Just for completeness: the patch was
done by Piavlo. He's seeing the problem and (AFAIK) is the only one
that can reproduct it.

These are good things to track down the problem, thanks! (I still wonder
why it works on Debian though). Just for completeness: the patch was
done by Piavlo. He's seeing the problem and (AFAIK) is the only one
that can reproduct it.
AFAICT i'm the only one who's trying to install libguestfs on gentoo :)
And not all debian related software is well tested and does not work out
of the box like on native debian system - also I had to create and
install several missing
ebuild packages in gentoo.

So how did it go in the end?

this one not
BUT !!!!
even with :
smallyes '' | chroot $TARGET dpkg --force-depends --install $(debfor
"$@")
and:
chroot $TARGET dpkg --force-depends --install $(debfor "$@") the
problem is not really solved (it just omits the warning message before
aborting installation)!!!
the "debirf make -n debian" command just ends
with:
...

#
while with original :
smallyes '' | in_target dpkg --force-depends --install $(debfor
"$@")
it ends with:

Looks like bash glitches...
Another thing to note (and which seems to be source of the problem) is
that debootstrap with --variant=fakechroot does not find any additional
base dependencies, while
with --variant=minbase|buildd it does and works correctly!!!
for example with -variant=minbase it finds:
...
I: Found additional base dependencies: debian-archive-keyring gnupg gpgv
libbz2-1.0 libreadline5 libusb-0.1-4 readline-common
...
#
And the following command installs the base system OK:
/usr/sbin/debootstrap --variant=minbase
--keyring=/usr/share/keyrings/debian-archive-keyring.gpg --include=less
--exclude=apt-utils,bsdmainutils,cron,ed,info,logrotate,man-db,manpages,tasksel,tasksel-data,tcpd,traceroute
lenny debian/root http://ftp.debian.org/debian/
Here is the output with --variant=fakechroot & --print-debs:
# fakechroot /usr/sbin/debootstrap --variant=fakechroot --print-debs
--keyring=/usr/share/keyrings/debian-archive-keyring.gpg --include=less

So problem must be due to debootstrap's --variant=fakechroot not
detecting any base dependencies.
And currently I can't proceed without this problem being solved.

I'm getting confused. So debootstrap on it's own (run as

I run all commands below manually as root.
These two work ok:
/usr/sbin/debootstrap --variant=minbase
--keyring=/usr/share/keyrings/debian-archive-keyring.gpg --include=less
--exclude=apt-utils,bsdmainutils,cron,ed,info,logrotate,man-db,manpages,tasksel,tasksel-data,tcpd,traceroute

--exclude=apt-utils,bsdmainutils,cron,ed,info,logrotate,man-db,manpages,tasksel,tasksel-data,tcpd,traceroute
lenny debian/root http://ftp.debian.org/debian/
While this one not work as expected and fails:
fakechroot /usr/sbin/debootstrap --variant=fakechroot --print-debs

--exclude=apt-utils,bsdmainutils,cron,ed,info,logrotate,man-db,manpages,tasksel,tasksel-data,tcpd,traceroute
lenny debian/root http://ftp.debian.org/debian/
It fails since with fakechroot it does not find any additional base
dependencies - so it fails with:

Yes this is 2.9
I'll try with older versions too.

why is it still looking for fedora based script and not debian one?
Try:
