```
When using debirf 0.35 to create an Xenial image, debirf fails to pack the rootfs with the error below:
image-builder: debirf> modules complete
image-builder: debirf> creating debirf initrd ('nested')...
image-builder: debirf> creating rootfs.cgz...
image-builder: cpio:
image-builder: Binary file (standard input) matches: Cannot stat
image-builder: : No such file or directory
image-builder: 35123 blocks
The "binary file matches" error comes from grep in pack_rootfs():
pack_rootfs() {
# need to pack archive in fakechroot/chroot so that symlinks correctly
# point within debirf root, instead of to host path
# abort with a failure if our attempts to build the rootfs fail:
set -o pipefail
fakeroot_if_needed bash -c ". $DEBIRF_COMMON && FAKECHROOT_EXCLUDE_PATH=/does-not-exist debirf_exec sh -c 'find * |
grep -v -e ^run/ | cpio --create -H newc'" | gzip -9 > "$1"
}
After further investigation, this appears to be an unexpected interaction with the ca-certificates package or files in /usr/share/ca-certificates. If the ca-certificates package is purged, then debirf successfully packs the rootfs.
