Running the command in the unit file with the debug flag yields some more info, localhost:~ # /usr/sbin/create_dirs_from_rpmdb --debug Missing /var/lib/libuuid (drwxr-xr-x,uuidd,uuidd,2022-12-23,10:26) Failed to resolve uuidd/uuidd I can clearly see that /var/lib/libuuid isn't present in my filesystem, but searching for it gives a hit in every snapshot. localhost:~ # find / -name libuuid /.snapshots/2/snapshot/var/lib/libuuid /.snapshots/3/snapshot/var/lib/libuuid /.snapshots/5/snapshot/var/lib/libuuid /.snapshots/6/snapshot/var/lib/libuuid Checking my mounts show that /dev/sda3 is mounted to /var localhost:~ # mount | grep sda3 /dev/sda3 on /var type btrfs (rw,relatime,seclabel,space_cache=v2,subvolid=5,subvol=/) Checking my mounts when inside a transactional-update shell it shows something completely different and I can clearly see that that neither /var nor /var/lib is mounted transactional update # mount | grep sda3 /dev/sda3 on /var/log type btrfs (rw,relatime,seclabel,space_cache=v2,subvolid=5,subvol=/) /dev/sda3 on /var/lib/zypp type btrfs (rw,relatime,seclabel,space_cache=v2,subvolid=5,subvol=/) /dev/sda3 on /var/lib/ca-certificates type btrfs (rw,relatime,seclabel,space_cache=v2,subvolid=5,subvol=/) /dev/sda3 on /var/lib/selinux type btrfs (rw,relatime,seclabel,space_cache=v2,subvolid=5,subvol=/) /dev/sda3 on /var/cache type btrfs (rw,relatime,seclabel,space_cache=v2,subvolid=5,subvol=/) If I mount /var and then do the update from within the transactional-update shell (zypper up or zypper dup) and reboot. The create_dirs_from_rpmdb program (and create-dirs-from-rpmdb.service) work just fine. Since I started using MicroOS about a week ago I don't fully understand if this is by design or not. Not mounting /var that is... Since transactional-update print the message "Separate /var detected." and looking in the man pages (https://manpages.opensuse.org/Tumbleweed/transactional-update/transactional-...) it states (in the important section), "... There is also limited handling for adding files and directories to /var, however modifications of existing files (e.g. migrating databases) are supposed to be handled by systemd jobs at startup (see the initial configuration and deployment section of the packaging guidelines[1])." -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
