Lots of failing tests there.... > # XPASS: 0 > # ERROR: 0 > ============================================================================ > See ./test-suite.log > Please report to de...@lists.cockpit-project.org > ============================================================================ [...] > https://tests.reproducible-builds.org/debian/rb-pkg/unstable/amd64/cockpit.html [...] I just looked at the first one and it fails here: $ head -n 57 src/common/test-webserver.c | tail -n 2 inet = cockpit_test_find_non_loopback_address (); g_assert (inet != NULL); I'm thus going to assume that the build environments that runs into these problems uses network namespaces or similar and doesn't expose anything but loopback to the build chroot. I looked a bit closer at cockpit_test_find_non_loopback_address in src/common/cockpittest.c and it seems it needs the following conditions met: - interface is up - ipv4 or ipv6 address configured - g_inet_address_get_is_loopback () returning false for a found address I presume the rest of the "webserver" tests fail for followup reasons related to that, but there are also other tests that fails that I haven't really diven deeper into to find why they fail. It might be a good idea to first just test if all problems vanishes if builting in a less network restricted environment, maybe that confirms the suspision without having to dive deep in every problem instantly. HTH The long-term solution should probably be that the test-suite automatically checks pre-conditions it has and skips the tests that can not be run under the current build environment automatically.
