Use mount --make-rprivate /. Unfortunately, the version of +util-linux in Debian at the time of writing (2.20.1) is broken and its +--make-rprivate does not actually work. See #731574. + +The intention is that the testcases are _not_ run automatically during package +building because they might be too fragile and additional dependencies make it +harder to port this package to Ubuntu or Debian backports. It is enough if the +test cases are run on every code change. |
