[SOLVED] Issues with building in a clean chroot

I’ve tried to build in clean chroots multiple times on multiple different occasions, but I’ve yet to succeed, so I’m starting to think I have something finicky somewhere in my setup that somehow interferes with expected functionality? It seems to always come back to not having “write permission for the directory $SRCDEST (/srcdest)” and I’m not sure what I’m doing wrong. Any suggestions for things to try/what to look at? (I’ve also tried to follow the classic way, but it ends up in the same issue with /srcdest.)

Re: [SOLVED] Issues with building in a clean chroot

Devtools scripts use the SRCDEST variable value (and a few others) from your /etc/makepkg.conf .

Please post the contents of that file.

Disliking systemd intensely, but not satisfied with alternatives so focusing on taming systemd.

clean chroot building not flexible enough ?
Try clean chroot manager by graysky

Re: [SOLVED] Issues with building in a clean chroot

/etc/makepkg.conf: https://privatebin.net/?622d321daa3a784 … VCLkGSKAxC

The SRCDEST comes from the chroot's makepkg.conf though:

> sudo grep -rF 'SRCDEST' /etc/ /mnt/chroots/arch/multilib-x86_64/*/etc/
/etc/makepkg.conf:SRCDEST=/var/cache/makepkg/sources
/mnt/chroots/arch/multilib-x86_64/freso/etc/makepkg.conf:#SRCDEST=/home/sources
/mnt/chroots/arch/multilib-x86_64/freso/etc/makepkg.conf:SRCDEST=/srcdest
/mnt/chroots/arch/multilib-x86_64/root/etc/makepkg.conf:#SRCDEST=/home/sources

head -v -n -0 /mnt/chroots/arch/multilib-x86_64/*/etc/makepkg.conf: https://privatebin.net/?5c7ca198e36cd58 … DfCvkCvyWX

Re: [SOLVED] Issues with building in a clean chroot

Any reason you're not using pkgctl build?

Re: [SOLVED] Issues with building in a clean chroot

Not any specific reason. I’ve tried multiple different approaches, they all (incl. `pkgctl build`) end up with “==> ERROR: You do not have write permission for the directory $SRCDEST (/srcdest).”

Re: [SOLVED] Issues with building in a clean chroot

Throwing at the wall,

I've ran into alc permission settings that proved difficult to troubleshoot...
IIRC, between the different permission settings, whichever is the most restrictive will override other settings.

Consider running 'getfacl' on the problematic dir after a write permission failure.

Scripts I Use                                                 :  https://github.com/Cody-Learner
grep -m1 'model name' /proc/cpuinfo    : AMD Ryzen 7 8745HS w/ Radeon 780M Graphics
grep -m1 'model name' /proc/cpuinfo    : Intel(R) N95
grep -m1 'model name' /proc/cpuinfo    : AMD Ryzen 5 PRO 2400GE w/ Radeon Vega Graphics

Seems like this (failing) write permission check happens later on?

Am I missing something or does `getfacl` seem to not provide any information that wasn’t already provided by the `ls -Ald` in the first post?

Re: [SOLVED] Issues with building in a clean chroot

//Edit: ignore it
I forgot that modified ACL's would be indicated with a '+' sign  by 'ls -l' if these are set.

Am I missing something or does `getfacl` seem to not provide any information that wasn’t already provided by the `ls -Ald` in the first post?

You miss something ;-)
man ls
'-A' means only "do not list implied . and .." and make no sense in combination with -d

It has nothing to do with AccessControlLists(ACL) what getfacl provide.

//Edit:
Behavior of  'ls -A' try

ls -al | head -4
ls -Al | head -4

Re: [SOLVED] Issues with building in a clean chroot

There however seem no special entries in the list.

Is any other package than gstreamer ?
Add 

set -x

before 

if (( !REPKG )); then

Re: [SOLVED] Issues with building in a clean chroot

I added the `set -x` before the `mkdir` and `chmod` commands (and doing it from/with another package to show that it's the same regardless of package):

Re: [SOLVED] Issues with building in a clean chroot

I duplicated your commands to test build 'lib32-gstreamer' successfully on my system.

Note my local /etc/makepkg.conf:'SRCDEST' is still commented out, whereas you've set it.

/etc/makepkg.conf:SRCDEST=/var/cache/makepkg/sources

[jeff@Arch2025p04 ~]$ sudo grep -rF 'SRCDEST' /etc/ /mnt/chroots/arch/multilib-x86_64/*/etc/

Re: [SOLVED] Issues with building in a clean chroot

+ exit 0
==> ERROR: You do not have write permission for the directory $SRCDEST (/srcdest).
    Aborting...

It's not from makepkg?
vim /usr/bin/pkgctl, add "set -x" below "set -e"
Be ready for this to produce a metric shit-ton of text, so best "pkgctl … |& tee /tmp/wtf.txt"

Edit: but first test commenting SRCDEST and see where that leads you (also into which directory)

Re: [SOLVED] Issues with building in a clean chroot

omg. commenting SRCDEST in (root, not chroot) /etc/makepkg.conf made `multilib-build -c -r /mnt/chroots/arch` build everything fine (i have /var mounted nosuid, so /var/lib/archbuild/ chroot building won’t work). “write permission for the directory $SRCDEST (/srcdest)” could really be more helpful ?

thank you all!

Re: [SOLVED] Issues with building in a clean chroot

To me, the quote below indicate user freso is a member of wheel, so should have write permission?
However, are these results possibly skewed or irrelevant from running through devtools scripts using pkgbuild and nspawn?
Is it possible the wheel group permission is not being honored in the container?
I'm also thinking about builduser's potential role in this.

I'd consider looking into verifying who the user is, and add write permission for <whoever is verified> via an ACL to /var/cache/makepkg/sources.

uid=1000(freso) gid=1000(freso) groups=1000(freso),7(lp),10(wheel),14(uucp),50(games),54(lock),91(video),92(audio),93(optical),95(storage),97(input),98(power),100(users),977(
seat),979(realtime),1001(plugdev),1003(ssh-user)

Add info:
If you go down the ACL path, AFAIK it'll require all the dir's in path  /var/cache/makepkg/sources have the x bit set.

This entire post is assuming you'd like to continue using your defined SRCDEST path.
