> Are there "audit" messages in the syslog file (of the host, of the
chroot)?

Found nothing that seems relevant on the host. There is no syslog in the
chroot AFAI am aware.

Sorry, I dont have time for that. Reproduction steps are noted above.

Title:
  Cups causes LibreOffice unittests to loop in a sbuild

Status in cups package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  When building LibreOffice 1:5.2.0-0ubuntu1 on a xenial host with a
  yakkety sbuild, e.g. by:

  sbuild -A -d yakkety-amd64 (...).dsc

  this loops/busy hangs with unittests. This was working ok up to
  5.2.0~rc4 (=final), it is a regression by a LibreOffice dependency,
  most likely CUPS, which was updated.

  I tried to inject debug symbols by running with a: --chroot-setup-
  command and then run something along the lines of:

   apt install cups
   wget http://launchpadlibrarian.net/278966811/cups-dbgsym_2.2~rc1-4_amd64.ddeb
   wget 
http://launchpadlibrarian.net/278966816/libcups2-dbgsym_2.2~rc1-4_amd64.ddeb
   dpkg -i cups-dbgsym_2.2~rc1-4_amd64.ddeb
   dpkg -i libcups2-dbgsym_2.2~rc1-4_amd64.ddeb

  before starting the build proper, but I got only marginally better
  debug info. The hanging LibreOffice test processes usually have 2-4
  child processes. The parent and one of the childs are busy, while the
  rest idle.

  Here is a stacktrace of the busy child:

  Program received signal SIGPIPE, Broken pipe.

  #6  0x0000000000000000 in ?? ()

  Here is a stacktrace of the busy parent:

  Thread 3 "CUPSManager cup" received signal SIGPIPE, Broken pipe.

  When pressing "c" in gdb to continue, both processes stop very quickly again 
with the SIGPIPE.
  Venturing a guess: Is the signal handling of CUPS b0rked? As fgetspent reads 
the shadow file[1], maybe there are missing permissions or other sandbox issues 
that CUPS doesnt handle error cases for properly?
