Vagrant box creation fails: can't unmount chroot that's busy

Optimizing image for compression Umounting /tmp/tmpvsGC26 EEEK! Something bad happened... command failed: ['umount', '/tmp/tmpvsGC26']

umount: /tmp/tmpvsGC26: target is busy
        (In some cases useful info about processes that
         use the device is found by lsof(8) or fuser(1).)

So I can’t build any ISO since the last changes to our build system were merged.

It’s kept busy by /tmp/tmpvsGC26/usr/sbin/sshd. Perhaps we need to stop the sshd service in the chroot at some point? But really, sshd should not even start in a chroot in the first place, so apparently something else is wrong, and it might be worth investigating to fix the root cause of the problem instead of workaround’ing it.
