Greetings,
After upgrading archiso to 50.1-1, I am running into an issue when building the Archiso. The build stops at a point when it attempts to set permissions (see below). The same process works fine in archiso 49-1. "liveruser" exists in both airootfs/etc/passwd and airootfs/etc/shadow. If I remove the liveuser entries from the airootfs/etc/passwd and airootfs/etc/shadow, the build resumes and the iso is built.
... [mkarchiso] INFO: Done! Packages installed successfully. [mkarchiso] INFO: Copying /etc/skel/* to user homes... [mkarchiso] ERROR: Failed to set permissions on 'work/x86_64/airootfs/home/liveuser'. Outside of valid path.
Any advice on how to overcome this? Reviewing the documentation did not yield any success.
profiledef.sh looks like this:
#!/usr/bin/env bash # shellcheck disable=SC2034
iso_name=arcolinux-dev iso_label="arcolinux-dev-v21.01.1" iso_publisher="ArcoLinux <http://www.arcolinux.info>" iso_application="ArcoLinux Live/Rescue CD" iso_version="v21.01.1" install_dir="arch" bootmodes=('bios.syslinux.mbr' 'bios.syslinux.eltorito' 'uefi-x64.systemd-boot.esp' 'uefi-x64.systemd-boot.eltorito') arch="x86_64" pacman_conf="pacman.conf" airootfs_image_tool_options=('-comp' 'xz' '-Xbcj' 'x86' '-b' '1M' '-Xdict-size' '1M') file_permissions=( ["/etc/shadow"]="0:0:400" ["/root"]="0:0:750" ["/root/.automated_script.sh"]="0:0:755" ["/usr/local/bin/choose-mirror"]="0:0:755" ["/usr/local/bin/Installation_guide"]="0:0:755" ["/usr/local/bin/livecd-sound"]="0:0:755" )
Thank you in advance for any hints!

I think this is because the default work_dir (i.e. "work" in the current directory) is not parsed with realpath. To work around it for now, set the working directory explicitly using mkarchiso -w /path/to/workdir . Most of the time you'll want to set it explicitly to somewhere under /tmp/ anyway.
