Error while trying to build pi-gen on Ubuntu 22.10 #661

Hi,

I used to be able to build this without much trouble a while back but recently, I have been trying to build this on an Ubuntu 22.10 but it always fail. The error I get is this:

W: Failure trying to run: chroot "/home/pierre/pi-gen/work/Raspbian/stage0/rootfs" /bin/true W: See /home/pierre/pi-gen/work/Raspbian/stage0/rootfs/debootstrap/debootstrap.log for details rmdir: failed to remove '/home/pierre/pi-gen/work/Raspbian/stage0/rootfs/debootstrap': Directory not empty

Can someone point me in the right direction to get this fixed? I know I probably don't need to build this myself but I wanted to try it. It used to work flawlessly for the longest time but now, I can't figure this out.

I'm running the ./build.sh with a sudo command if that can help.

Thank you Pierre

P.S.: If this is something that has already been raised, feel free to close this.

Is there more to the error message? What's in debootstrap.log? Have there been changes to your build environment between the time it was working and now?

Hi,

Thank you for taking the time to post.

Sorry about the late response. As far as I know that's the only error message but let me look for the log file you are referring to and I will attach it here. It might take a bit of time but I will get it eventually.

As for the build environment, it's a brand new one. I had built this in a VM before using an Ubuntu 20.04 or something similar but I didn't keep the VM - a dumb mistake on my part now that I look back on it. I started from scratch with a stock 22.10. When I saw that it wasn't working, I remembered that this was tested on a 16.04 so I downloaded that and built a VM with it but it didn't seem to really help.

As soon as I have more, I will update this. Thank you.

From the information so far, it seems like a problem with the version or setup of qemu in 22.10. The only distro I can currently vouch for as suitable for pi-gen cross-builds would be Debian Bullseye.

I'm currently on 22.04 myself, and haven't noticed any issues with it either.

I will be closing this. As mentioned, I did the same build on a 22.04 instead and it worked perfectly. The error is likely mine to start with. Thanks for those that answered the post. Have a great day.
