Hi, I have a similar problem. When trying to update cowbuilder (sudo cowbuilder --update) it scrolls a lot of error messages beeing not able to remove files like
/var/cache/pbuilder/build/cow.3698/proc/3440/task/3440/fd/1 and finally aborting. I've tried the same command several times always with the same result but an increasing number of v/c/pbuilder/cow.XXXX/proc/... Trying to manually remove all files under /v/c/pbuilder/build fails for all files under /proc and /dev/pts. Not even root can remove those files. I don't know if this is related but after a reboot my disk (ext3) was checked on bootup and it found an error (Code 3 -- whatever that means...) and had to be rebooted. I suggest to upgrade the severity of this bug, since cowdancer is unusable, not beeing able to update it or using it for building packages. Meanwhile one can still use pbuilder. How can I get rid of the remaining files? Is it safe to remove them?
