`-w "$TRAVIS_BUILD_DIR" -v "$TRAVIS_BUILD_DIR:$TRAVIS_BUILD_DIR"` also seems suspicious. You are mounting stuff under `/home`, but it’s not your homedir (in a container, you are usually `root`) and doesn’t have the usual stuff – this may break software’s assumptions.  
Better mount it somewhere neutral – e.g. under `/root` or `/mnt` (the Multibuild project uses `/io`).

Then, there is [an error on installation step](https://travis-ci.org/ondratu/m-bitbeam/jobs/649376832#L2287) that you might have overlooked.
