Subject: PRoot Isar summary
Date: Thu, 9 Nov 2017 12:57:34 +0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1496e693-490f-16d6-0957-c9281ed7dd3e@ilbers.de> (raw)

Hello everybody,

I've tried to completely switch Isar to PRoot, so here are the problems 
I've faced with:

1. PRoot doesn't work with UID/GID, all the files in PRoot are owned by 
root. The command 'chown' doesn't have any effect.

2. Some system commands are failed in PRoot: passwd, chpasswd. I see 
message: System error, no other clues (but for Wheezy these commands work).

3. mkfs.ext4 doesn't work under proot, lots of files are dropped in 
resulting image.

So, summary:
============

1. PRoot could be an intermediate option for:
  + Buildchroot creation.
  + Packages building.
  - Drawback: works slowly.

2. For image generation the other tool should be considered.
