[Bug 874505] [NEW] Native Multistrap oneiric chroots have an error configuring base-files

[Launchpad Bug Tracker]

You have been subscribed to a public bug:

Setting up an Oneiric cross-build chroot on a natty machine with the
natty version of multistrap dies during base-files due to /var/run
issue:

Setting up base-files (6.4ubuntu5) ...
rmdir: failed to remove `/var/run': Directory not empty
dpkg: error processing base-files (--configure):
 subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 1

thjis goes on to prevent installation of:
 base-files
 bash
 dpkg-dev
 devscripts
 libdebian-dpkgcross-perl
 xdeb
 build-essential
 dpkg-cross

Inside the schroot we have:
/var/run on /run type none (rw,bind)
/var/lock on /run/lock type none (rw,bind)

umounting these does not allow /var/run migration because now some files have already been created in there:
sudo dpkg --configure -a 
Setting up base-files (6.4ubuntu5) ...
rmdir: failed to remove `/var/run': Directory not empty
