The first was caused a bug in how a rsync'ed the source tree to the
armhf build host. Debian's build systems have a firewall that prevent
git from working correctly, so I have to rsync the source tree up
build host, and this broke the git tree so the automated generation of
the *.ver files broke, which in turn aborted the installation of the
quota tools.
The second problem had to do with how fakechroot (used because I don't
have root on the arm build host) handles symlinks. Fixed by using the
"symlinks" program rewrite the absolute symlinks to relative symlinks.
I've uploaded an updated armmf_root_fs.tar.gz; please give it a try!
Cheers,
- Ted
