Package: qemu-user-static Version: 1:2.7+dfsg-3 Severity: normal Forwarded: https://bugs.launchpad.net/qemu/+bug/1643619
Hi, I am filing this because I want a Debian bug number - I have already forwarded it upstream and done a small amount of investigation into it. When attempting to qemu debootstrap a mips big-endian chroot, debootstrap fails to configure systemd. This is because netlink on qemu-user mips is broken - a request is made to the kernel which never replies. I did some investigation and it seems that the netlink requests are all byteswapped and the kernel ignores them (presumably because they contain garbage). I suspect this also affects other big-endian architectures but I have not checked. Thanks, James
