[Qemu-devel] [Bug 1254672] Re: ps segfaults with qemu-{arm, armel, mips, powerpc}-static

[Ken Sharp]

Version: 1.6.0+dfsg-2ubuntu4

This is fixed in Trusty in the qemu package. Doesn't look like qemu-
linaro has been updated for Trusty. I don't know what is going on with
these two packages.

Bug description:
  Host: Ubuntu Precise AMD64
  Guest: Debian Testing armhf (or armel)

  After running a debootstrap for Debian testing/armhf and entering the
  chroot, simply running "ps" causes a segmentation fault.

  $ sudo qemu-debootstrap --arch=armhf testing armhf 
http://ftp.uk.debian.org/debian/
  [...]
  $ sudo chroot armhf
  # ps
  Signal 11 (SEGV) caught by ps (procps-ng version 3.3.4).
  /bin/ps:display.c:59: please report this bug

  I couldn't find a bug report for procps, which would be unusual if
  such a bug existed, so I'm assuming the bug is in qemu.

  Unfortunately trying to run debootstrap for an Ubuntu variant fails to
  find the release file.

  ps is used a lot, as you can imagine, but specifically it fails when
  trying to install some packages via "apt-get install" and no attempt
  is made to recover.
