I'm trying to build a R4.0 fc30 template in dispvm, but it fails
at the "make build-id" step because the lost+found directory is
in the way.

My build steps:
* Clone https://github.com/QubesOS/qubes-builder
* cp example-configs/qubes-os-r4.0.conf builder.conf
* make get-sources
* make get-sources-extra
* make template-in-dispvm-fc30

The build fails, the last messages in build-logs/template-fc30.log:
[...]
+ make build-id DISTS_VM=fc30

Is this a known problem? Am I missing some steps in the build process?

A solution might be to put the builder into a subdirectory rather than
directly in the root of the image. But I guess this must have worked
as-is at some point?

The "lost+found" message isn't a problem. The next one is - you have
some uncommitted changes in the main builder directory. Check with 'git
status'.

Yes, it does work as-is.

Hm, I assumed the lost+found was the untracked file git was complaining
about, but you are right.

I was originally trying to build a modified tree with my own commits, but
before posting I tried it again starting from a known-clean checkout.

Indeed there is an untracked 'rpmdb/' in the tree now. I just tried another
clean build, following the above steps on a fc30 AppVM, running 'git status'
after every step. The rpmdb directory seems to be created by
'make get-sources'.

I'll have to investigate further exactly which step of get-sources causes
this.

Yeah, I figured it must, since otherwise CI would be broken. Not sure
why this is an issue on my end yet.

Thanks,

See makefile of linux-dom0-updates, there is rpmdb directory created. It
should be at qubes-src/linux-dom0-updates/rpmdb, but maybe something
gone wrong?
You can check each component separately with:

make COMPONENTS=linux-dom0-updates get-sources
