Package: autopkgtest Version: 5.39 Severity: normal X-Debbugs-Cc: par...@debian.org, s...@debian.org
With 544a086e10a0192c5950c6211373219ee2227ead we introduced checking for capabilities when running the ChrootRunner tests; some more context is in the MR description [1]. However, looks like this prevents running tests where full root permissions are available. Looks like the cuprit it CAP_SYS_ADMIN not being INHERITABLE: # id uid=0(root) gid=0(root) groups=0(root) # python3 -c "import capng; print(bool(capng.capng_have_capability(capng.CAPNG_INHERITABLE,capng.CAP_SYS_ADMIN)))" False In this environment the ChrootRunner tests *do* work if I bypass the capabilities check. This is tested in a Debian VM and on a bare metal Ubuntu system. -- Paride [1] https://salsa.debian.org/ci-team/autopkgtest/-/merge_requests/394
