Bug#392799: Having the need to have "/proc" mounted in postinst halts installations in chroots, hence in debian-live.

I can tell you that it's not rocket science to get /proc mounted in your target

you're done.

In fact we did an hack for having /proc mounted in debian-live, but the bug regards also installing apache in chroots without /proc mounted, and I cannot see why having /proc mounted should be a requirements, others package maintainers have patched issues like this to have their packages building in automated building tools like pbuilder or similar, I think this could be an easy to add feature.

pbuilder mounts proc. Seriously, there is no reason not to mount /proc in any and all chroots.

But I think this bug instead of closed should be put on whislist at least, since it is not resolved but just put in a "I do not agree on that" form.

The apache teams prefer not to have wontfix wishlist bugs around, as they're useless and clutter up the bug listing page which is big enough as is.
