tags 566026 patch thanks I've just hit this problem. It seems that something changed in Linux x86_64 newfstatat/fstatat64 syscall at some point. I'm not clear on the details, but this patch seems to fix it.
(before, chmod was calling fstatat which called newfstatat which failed; now the fstatat hook calls fstatat64 instead) If this is correct, then the bug would have affected x86_64 only. The patch should apply and work against both 0.16 and 0.17. diff -urN fakeroot-ng-0.17.orig/arch/linux/x86_64/platform_specific.h fakeroot-ng-0.17/arch/linux/x86_64/platform_specific.h --- fakeroot-ng-0.17.orig/arch/linux/x86_64/platform_specific.h 2009-05-19 03:45:43.000000000 +0100 +++ fakeroot-ng-0.17/arch/linux/x86_64/platform_specific.h 2010-03-31 20:23:11.000000000 +0100 @@ -117,7 +117,7 @@ #define PREF_STAT SYS_stat #define PREF_LSTAT SYS_lstat #define PREF_FSTAT SYS_fstat -#define PREF_FSTATAT SYS_newfstatat +#define PREF_FSTATAT SYS_fstatat64 #define PREF_NOP SYS_getuid #define PREF_MMAP SYS_mmap -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
