Error I create a iso manjaro in docker

Support Virtualization
#1

I am trying to automate the creation of ISO of manjaro using a docker container base from that of official manjaro. Is presenting the following errors, could someone help me?

[root@03228fcd7684 /]# buildiso -f -p kde -b stable

#2

from the message it appears you need to install the lsb-release package in your container

#3

If you install manjaro-release package then lsb-release error message disappears.

$ buildpkg -cw
 --> Loading compiler settings: x86_64

If you call it with bash -x, it goes to setarch binary with mkchroot arg

$ setarch x86_64 mkchroot -C /usr/share/manjaro-tools/pacman-default.conf -M /tmp/manjaro-tools/makepkg-x86_64.conf -S /tmp/manjaro-tools/pacman-mirrors-stable.conf -B https://manjaro.moson.eu/stable -L /var/lib/manjaro-tools/buildpkg/stable/x86_64/root base-devel
 --> mirror: https://manjaro.moson.eu/stable/$repo/$arch
==> Creating install root at /var/lib/manjaro-tools/buildpkg/stable/x86_64/root
mount: /var/lib/manjaro-tools/buildpkg/stable/x86_64/root/dev: permission denied.
==> ERROR: failed to setup API filesystems in new root
==> ERROR: Failed to install all packages

Then you can continue with bash -x to you continue to basestrap which does

mount udev /var/lib/manjaro-tools/buildpkg/stable/x86_64/root/dev -t devtmpfs -o mode=0755,nosuid

The question is how to reconfigure docker to run container with enough priviledges or how to change basestrap to be working without extra permissions.

#4

In my case helped to run container in as root with --privileded flag

#5

Running like this is very insecure for the system. I managed to run with the podman, but I’m still having an error creating the iso, if anyone can help !!
