[Bug 1943049] Re: Docker ubuntu:impish: Problem executing scripts DPkg::Post-Invoke 'rm -f /var/cache/apt/archives/*.deb /var/cache/apt/archives/partial/*.deb /var/cache/apt/*.bin || true'

[Reinhard Tartler]

Thanks for the detailed steps. I am now able to reproduce and think I
understand the issue.

It seems that you missed out the seccomp.json changes from
https://github.com/containers/common/pull/573. Also, it seems that the
code changes in that commit aren't strictly necessary to fix the
reproducer. As a hotpatch, I was able to "fix" the issue with:


sudo curl -L https://raw.githubusercontent.com/containers/common/v0.41.0/pkg/seccomp/seccomp.json -o /usr/share/containers/seccomp.json

and then this command starts working:

podman run  -it --rm  ubuntu:impish /bin/bash -c 'apt-get -qq update;
apt-get install -y libc6; apt-get install -y jq'

I'll see to provide a backport of that pull request for impish.

Bug description:
  Sometime betweek August 28 and September 4 2021 the ubuntu:impish
  images published on dockerhub began erroring when executing the
  commands defined in /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/docker-clean.

  I have this reproducer, which is probably not as minimal as it can be
  but looks reliable:

  1. docker run -it --rm ubuntu:impish bash
  2. apt update
  3. apt install git
  4. apt -y remove git

  This results in:

  E: Problem executing scripts DPkg::Post-Invoke 'rm -f /var/cache/apt/archives/*.deb /var/cache/apt/archives/partial/*.deb /var/cache/apt/*.bin || true'
  E: Sub-process returned an error code

  *Removing* a package is not strictly needed to trigger the failure,
  but it seems that *two* apt operations are needed to trigger it, so
  this reproducer found by athos-ribeiro also works:

  docker run -it --rm ubuntu:impish /bin/bash -c 'apt-get update; apt-
  get full-upgrade -y; apt-get install -y jq'

  This doesn't happen when using ubuntu:hirsute.
