Thanks for the observations. I thought maybe this could be related to
debootstrap, but I was not sure.

Below I have made a comparison of the base-files package on two
containers LXC I created from scratch for the purposes of these tests:

root@sirius:~# lxc-ls --fancy | egrep "jessie|wheezy"
jessietest  RUNNING  10.1.0.49  -     NO         
wheezytest  RUNNING  10.1.0.32  -     NO

------------------------------------------------------------------------
root@jessietest:~# lsb_release -a
No LSB modules are available.
Distributor ID: Debian
Description:    Debian GNU/Linux 8.5 (jessie)
Release:        8.5

------------------------------------------------------------------------
root@jessietest:~# dpkg -c 
/var/cache/apt/archives/base-files_8+deb8u5_amd64.deb | grep /bin
drwxr-xr-x root/root         0 2016-05-30 01:18 ./bin/
drwxr-xr-x root/root         0 2016-05-30 01:18 ./usr/bin/
------------------------------------------------------------------------
root@jessietest:~# ls -ld /bin/
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root  4096 ago 27 10:51 /bin/

It is interesting to see that in these installations created with the
following syntax:

# lxc-create -n $lxcname -B lvm --vgname=vms --lvname=$lxcname-disk --fssize=8G 
--fstype=ext4 -t debian -- -r wheezy
# lxc-create -n $lxcname -B lvm --vgname=vms --lvname=$lxcname-disk --fssize=8G 
--fstype=ext4 -t debian -- -r jessie

the permissions are correct. But if I do the same check on this
notebook installed using the netinstall CD, permissions are not 755 but
775:

viper@orion:~$ lsb_release -a
No LSB modules are available.
Distributor ID: Debian
Description:    Debian GNU/Linux 8.5 (jessie)
Release:        8.5
Codename:       jessie

viper@orion:~$ ls -ld /bin/
drwxrwxr-x 2 root root 4096 jul  9 09:06 /bin/


Here I find a pattern, since the difference of permissions mentioned in
the previous mail was found in a KVM virtual machine installed using the
netinstall CD.

But I have checked in other Jessie virtual machines and permissions are
755. So I'm not sure what can be introducing this difference.

I just installed Jessie using the latest version of netinstall I have
(debian-8.1.0-amd64-netinst.iso) and I can confirm here that /bin has
permissions 775. So it may be that the problem comes from that side...

Could you please confirm this? Anyway, I will try to make a test with
the latest version of netinstall.

I think jailkit fails when copy /bin using 775 from the base
installation. I will try testing with Jessie netinstall 8.5 to see if we
can isolate the source of the problem.


Kind regards,
