[elbe-devel] Elbe fails to start after upgrade

[Ralf Schlatterbeck]

I've just upgraded to latest elbe (on debian oldstable aka jessie,
stretch was release last Saturday as you're probably aware).

My elbe says:
: ralf at cob:63; elbe --version
elbe v1.9.20 debian 8.8

I'm getting a version mismatch in the elbe message after building a new image
where it says the (just created) image is of the wrong version. Maybe this is
caused by explicit elbe repos mentioned in the XML-file?:

      <url-list>
        <url>
          <binary>
            http://debian.linutronix.de/elbe-testing jessie main
          </binary>
        </url>
        <url>
          <binary>
            http://debian.linutronix.de/elbe-common jessie main
          </binary>
        </url>
      </url-list>

When rebuilding the initvm I'm getting a successful install but then it
fails with a version mismatch. Any Idea where the created image picks up
the wrong version number? Tail of log:

...
[ 1072.712125] reboot: Restarting system
mkdir -p .stamps
touch .stamps/stamp-install-initial-image
*****
Maybe starting elbe initvm failed:
qemu-system-x86_64: -netdev user,id=user.0,hostfwd=tcp::5022-:22,hostfwd=tcp::7587-:7588: could not set up host forwarding rule 'tcp::7587-:7588'

qemu-system-x86_64: -netdev user,id=user.0,hostfwd=tcp::5022-:22,hostfwd=tcp::7587-:7588: Device 'user' could not be initialized

make: *** [run-con] Error 1

elbe control create_project failed.
elbe v1.9.19 is used in initvm, this is not compatible with elbe v1.9.20 that is used on this machine. Please install same versions of elbe in initvm and on your machine.

Giving up
