start sandbox without application (runtime debugging)

[Emmanuele Bassi]

Hi;

the real question would be: why are you creating your own runtime?

Runtimes are the equivalent of a (small) Linux distribution; creating
a runtime is a considerable effort.

You should at least use the freedesktop.org runtime as the base, to
avoid having to deal with low level components like a shell — which
you are apparently missing from the build.

Ciao,
 Emmanuele.
