[Bug 595908] Re: --create fails due to failure to mount /proc

[Erik Brommers]

Having the same problem on VMWare image of precise under OS X 10.6.8.
What's interesting here is that the pbuilder create calls with ARCH=i386
work for me, but ARCH=amd64 are failing with the same symptoms (chroot
mount failure followed by debootstrap failed error). I have:

sudo DIST=lucid ARCH=i386 pbuilder create  --> works
sudo DIST=lucid ARCH=amd64 pbuilder create  --> fails
sudo DIST=maverick ARCH=i386 pbuilder create  --> works
sudo DIST=maverick ARCH=amd64 pbuilder create  --> fails
sudo DIST=natty ARCH=i386 pbuilder create  --> works
sudo DIST=natty ARCH=amd64 pbuilder create  --> fails
sudo DIST=oneiric ARCH=i386 pbuilder create  --> works
sudo DIST=oneiric ARCH=amd64 pbuilder create  --> fails
sudo DIST=precise ARCH=i386 pbuilder create  --> works
sudo DIST=precise ARCH=amd64 pbuilder create  --> fails
