I have a DEB package which dynamically creates a chroot filesystem in package postinst helper script. The package works fine for x86, amd64, and arm64 on Debian Stretch/Buster/Bullseye and Ubuntu Bionic/Focal/Jammy. However, I recently tried to install it on Raspbian arm32 and it failed.
The problem is that the pathname of the nsswitch
libraries is constructed differently than on the other platforms. In other words, the piece meal assembly of the library path using uname -m
is not matching what's present in the file-system.
#!/bin/bash -eu
U=chroot_user
UHOME=/home/$U
ARCH=$(uname -m)
function add_executable () {
FROM="$1"; shift
TO="$(basename $FROM)"
if [ $# -ge 1 ]; then
TO=$1; shift
fi
cp "$FROM" "$UHOME/bin/$TO"
ldd "$FROM" | grep "=> /" | awk '{print $3}' | xargs -I '{}' cp '{}' $UHOME/lib/
LIBNAME="ld-linux-$(echo $ARCH | tr '_' '-').so*"
if compgen -G "/lib64/${LIBNAME}" > /dev/null; then
cp /lib64/${LIBNAME} $UHOME/lib64/
elif compgen -G "/lib/${LIBNAME}" > /dev/null; then
cp /lib/${LIBNAME} $UHOME/lib/
fi
}

# Create a system user that has restricted bash as its login shell.
IS_USER=$(grep $U /etc/passwd || true)

CodePudding user response:
Not in the expected location ... well, more like: the architecture type in uname
's output doesn't match the directory name you want to construct ...
But you could find the directory in a different way, since you're on apt
based distros.
dpkg -L libnss3 | awk '/libnss3.so/{gsub(/\/libnss3.so/,"",$0);print}'
This worked for me on both Ubuntu 20.04
and Raspbian GNU/Linux 10 (buster)
Raspbian:
$ dpkg -L libnss3 | awk '/libnss3.so/{gsub(/\/libnss3.so/,"",$0);print}'
/usr/lib/arm-linux-gnueabihf
Ubuntu:
$ dpkg -L libnss3 | awk '/libnss3.so/{gsub(/\/libnss3.so/,"",$0);print}'
/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu
