I also confirm the patch in #3 works. However I'd suggest that rather than patching dapper.py, it would be better to do modify the quantal.py subclass (if that's the first release which requires /proc to be mounted). Otherwise you're going to change the build behaviour for all previous releases

Still in 14.04. The other problem with the current directory containing temporary name approach is that it does not properly map to any libvirt storage type (either 'file' or 'directory'), and therefore cannot be managed properly through virsh or virt-manager, e.g. you can't clone it. -- You

OK, I found it. During debootstrap run, a process udevd --daemon is started. It persists when debootstrap gets to the end. If you kill it, the process reading from debootstrap's stdout is able to terminate. My guess is that stdout is being passed to that daemon, and it's holding it open. No
