Description Oron Peled 2012-04-12 06:46:46 UTC
Description of problem:

current schroot has no 'lvm-snapshot' support

Steps to Reproduce:
1. create an 'lvm-snapshot' configuration file:
       [sid-snapshot]
       type=lvm-snapshot
       description=Debian unstable LVM snapshot
       priority=3
       groups=sbuild
       users=rleigh
       source-root-users=rleigh
       source-root-groups=admin
       device=/dev/hda_vg/sid_chroot
       mount-options=-o atime,sync,user_xattr
       lvm-snapshot-options=--size 2G

2. run 'schroot -l'
  
Additional info:

The reason is very simple. The schroot configure script check during
build if both lvcreate/lvremove exists. If not, than it compiles
the code without 'lvm-snapshot' support.

Suggested fix:
 * Add a BuildRequires: lvm2
 * I don't currently use btrfs, but 'btrfs-snapshot' is also turned off
   because of similar test. Maybe it's time to add this support as well.

Comment 1 Oron Peled 2012-04-12 09:05:42 UTC
 * Note: bug #600636 comment #4 contains a minor patch to lockdev.
         With this patch, schroot finally can be used by non-root users
         on 'lvm-snapshot' schroots.

 * Supporting also btrfs-snapshot:
   - Add BR: btrfs-progs enable this feature in schroot

   - Build tested, but cannot use this    feature now, since I don't have
     any btrfs filesystems.

 * Support unit testing:
   - Add BR: cppunit-devel

   - Add BR: fakeroot

   - Add to the .spec file:
      %check
      fakeroot make check

   - The unit testing works either with/without the LVM and BTRFS changes
     (without them, these features simply runs 0 tests)

Comment 5 Oron Peled 2012-05-10 21:09:15 UTC
Browsing the build.log, there is a minor man-pages build bug.
Example (around line 678 of the log):
   make[2]: [schroot-setup.5] Error 127 (ignored)
   /bin/sh: I: command not found

From looking in the man/Makefile.am, it seems the problem is caused
by missing definition of $(SOELIM) which should be found by ./configure.

The configure.ac indeed looks for SOELIM and looking again in the build.log
shows it did not find the soelim(1) program in the mock chroot.

On Fedora, soelim(1) is provided by groff which should be added to the BR of the package.
