Installing libhildonfm2-dev for scratchbox

[armenzg]

What seems to be an easy thing to do as to install a library into
scratchbox is being something difficult to debug.

The command "/scratchbox/moz_scratchbox -p apt-get --yes --force-yes
install libhildonfm2-dev" can be run in a linux vm with the account
"cltbld" without any problems but when I try to test it from this same
slave (I remove first the package) or any other slave as root by
typing this:
puppetd --test --server staging-puppet.build.mozilla.org
I get the following error message:
err: //Node[moz2-linux-slave03.build.mozilla.org]/staging-buildslave/
extras/Exec[/scratchbox/moz_scratchbox -p apt-get --yes --force-yes
install libhildonfm2-dev]/returns: change from notrun to 0 failed: /
scratchbox/moz_scratchbox -p apt-get --yes --force-yes install
libhildonfm2-dev returned 1 instead of 0 at /etc/puppet/manifests/
packages/extras.pp:11

What am I doing wrong? Is the command being run as cltbld when puppet
tries that?

Cheers,
Armen

I am a little better now. scratchbox does not allow to run anything as
root so I tried this:
"su - cltbld -c '/scratchbox/moz_scratchbox -p apt-get --yes --force-
yes install libhildonfm2-dev'"
I now got this problem:
err: Could not create su - cltbld -c '/scratchbox/moz_scratchbox -p
apt-get --yes --force-yes install libhildonfm2-dev': 'su - cltbld -c '/

scratchbox/moz_scratchbox -p apt-get --yes --force-yes install

All I had to is to add the "path" variable. In my case the minimum I
needed was "path => '/bin',".

Here is another post that had a brief mention of my problem:
