In fakeroot 1.16-1, Debian added a patch to add access() support, to fix debian bug #629956.
However, this broke apt (debian bug #630591) and other stuff (debian bug #630129), and so the patch was reverted in fakeroot 1.17-1: http://packages.qa.debian.org/f/fakeroot/news/20110818T113211Z.html As a workaround, you can make pygtk succeed via the LD_PRELOAD trick: G_HOME=/ PYTHON=/usr/bin/python$* LD_PRELOAD="" xvfb-run -s "-screen 0 1280x1024x24 -noreset" $(MAKE) -C build-$* check The real solution is to pull fakeroot 1.17-1 and get rid of fakeroot's bugged access(). -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xorg-server in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/829470 Title: Xvfb fails with empty /var/lib/xkb, causing build failures To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/fakeroot/+bug/829470/+subscriptions _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
