which will probably not happen because schroot is supposed to be run as a user but the decision about which mounts are allowed should be left to the superuser. This is currently enforced by only root having the privileges to edit /etc/schroot/chroot.d/*. If a normal user could bind mount whatever they want on demand that would be a security issue. > > > My use case is that I want to make a local repository (file:///) > > > available as an extra repository.

What I'm usually doing is to setup a local http server like this: $ cd /my/pkg/root $ python3 -m http.server 8000 --bind 127.0.0.1 With this I can then run sbuild with: --extra-repository="deb http://127.0.0.1:8000/ ./" Alternatively you could use some of the directories that are already shared with the sbuild chroot by default like /home and /tmp Hope this helps! cheers, josch
