Package: qemu-user-static Version: 1.1.0+dfsg-1 Severity: normal Dear Maintainer,
there appears to be an oversight in /usr/share/binfmts/qemu-*. 'flags' is not
known to update-binfmts:
======================================================================
joe@paranoia:~/debian/conf$ grep flags /usr/share/binfmts/qemu-*
/usr/share/binfmts/qemu-alpha:flags: OC
/usr/share/binfmts/qemu-arm:flags: OC
/usr/share/binfmts/qemu-armeb:flags: OC
/usr/share/binfmts/qemu-cris:flags: OC
/usr/share/binfmts/qemu-m68k:flags: OC
/usr/share/binfmts/qemu-microblaze:flags: OC
/usr/share/binfmts/qemu-mips:flags: OC
/usr/share/binfmts/qemu-mipsel:flags: OC
/usr/share/binfmts/qemu-ppc:flags: OC
/usr/share/binfmts/qemu-ppc64:flags: OC
/usr/share/binfmts/qemu-ppc64abi32:flags: OC
/usr/share/binfmts/qemu-s390x:flags: OC
/usr/share/binfmts/qemu-sh4:flags: OC
/usr/share/binfmts/qemu-sh4eb:flags: OC
/usr/share/binfmts/qemu-sparc:flags: OC
/usr/share/binfmts/qemu-sparc32plus:flags: OC
/usr/share/binfmts/qemu-sparc64:flags: OC
======================================================================
The effect of this is that, I can't run setuid binaries e.g. in foreign-arch
chroots (I noticed this problem when trying 'su' in a mips chroot on an i386
host).
Replacing 'flags: OC' with 'credentials yes' fixes the issue for me.
NOTE: There appears to be a bug in update-binfmts, such that one needs to run
'update-binfmts --import' twice for changes to become effective, which
is quite confusing when debugging.
Thanks,
Jö.
