[SOLVED] Fakeroot can't resolve a host. DNS issue ? (curl/wget)

Since a few days the 'checkupdates' script stopped working. It runs fine under sudo/root.

[f3bruary:~]$ checkupdates
[f3bruary:~]$ sudo checkupdates
clutter
clutter-gtk
iniparser
lib32-mesa
lib32-mesa-libgl
zenity

I edited the script to output command results by removing the & from &>, which is the same output I got when performing the command inside the script step by step. which can be seen below.

[f3bruary:tmp]$ checkupdates

I'm not sure but I think the 'fakeroot' is broken somehow.

Some more info:

[f3bruary:tmp]$ mkdir /tmp/test; fakeroot pacman -Sy --dbpath /tmp/test
(same output as above)

[f3bruary:tmp]$ findmnt /tmp
TARGET SOURCE FSTYPE OPTIONS
/tmp   tmpfs  tmpfs  rw

UPDATE: Changed topic title to reflect the actual issue.

Re: [SOLVED] Fakeroot can't resolve a host. DNS issue ? (curl/wget)

Works fine here: pacman 4.2.1-1

I'm running the same version. The checkupdates script also doesn't clean up the folder in /tmp it creates during execution.

Re: [SOLVED] Fakeroot can't resolve a host. DNS issue ? (curl/wget)

Thanks to some people in #archlinux I have found out that the problem lies with fakeroot not being able to use curl because of some dns issue.

[f3bruary:~]$ fakeroot curl google.com                                         
curl: (6) Could not resolve host: google.com
[f3bruary:~]$ fakeroot curl 74.125.136.101
<HTML><HEAD><meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html;charset=utf-8">
<TITLE>301 Moved</TITLE></HEAD><BODY>
<H1>301 Moved</H1>
The document has moved
<A HREF="http://www.google.com/">here</A>.
</BODY></HTML>

[f3bruary:~]$ cat /etc/resolv.conf                                             
# Generated by resolvconf
nameserver 8.8.8.8

I still have no idea why though. And why root (sudo) doesn't have the same problem. If anyone could point me in the right direction, I'd appreciate it.

If anyone could help me out, I'd appreciate it. I use the checkupdates script for a conkyrc.

Re: [SOLVED] Fakeroot can't resolve a host. DNS issue ? (curl/wget)

what are the permissions on /etc/resolv.conf? If it is a symlink, what does it point to and what are the permissions of that target-path?

644 root:root. It's not symlinked. To clarify, root and also regular users have no issues. Only fakeroot.

Re: [SOLVED] Fakeroot can't resolve a host. DNS issue ? (curl/wget)

f3bruary,

What's your output of:

 /bin/bash -x fakeroot curl google.com 

Look for differences compared to this output:

I diff'ed both outputs and aside from different IDs/PIDs, and the final error code, they look pretty similar.

Re: [SOLVED] Fakeroot can't resolve a host. DNS issue ? (curl/wget)

f3b,

It does indeed seem like it could be an odd DNS issue.  I suspect that the problem would've shown itself regardless of user if that was the case though.

Nonetheless, if you'd like to try and 'wait it out' you could wrap the command in an 'until' loop:

 fakeroot until curl google.com; do sleep 5; done 

Also, it sounds like curl might not be required, so you may see better results with wget:

from man wget:

 "Wget has been designed for robustness over slow or unstable network connections; if a download fails due to a network problem, it will keep 
retrying until the whole file has been retrieved. If the server supports regetting, it will instruct the server to continue the download from where it left off." 

Aside from that, the only resolutions I'm seeing for this (other than setting Google's nameservers in /etc/resolv.conf) are to make sure IPv6 is disabled.

Re: [SOLVED] Fakeroot can't resolve a host. DNS issue ? (curl/wget)

wget has the same issue. Ping however does work.

[f3bruary:~]$ fakeroot ping google.com

Re: [SOLVED] Fakeroot can't resolve a host. DNS issue ? (curl/wget)

Do you maybe have more then 3 files in /usr/lib/libfakeroot/ ? Otherwise you could compare `strace -feopen` with and without fakeroot to see if it's a library issue

Just this

-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 53168 Nov  6  2014 libfakeroot-0.so
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root    16 Nov  6  2014 libfakeroot.so -> libfakeroot-0.so

Could someone point me in the right direction to possibly solve this ?

Re: [SOLVED] Fakeroot can't resolve a host. DNS issue ? (curl/wget)

I just updated pacman to v.4.2.1-2 and I still have the same issue.

UPDATE: I managed to fix with the help of 'sheep' on IRC. I needed to place 'dns' in /etc/nsswitch.conf on line 9:

hosts: files mymachines resolve dns myhostname
