Source: rhythmbox Version: 3.4.8-1 Severity: important Tags: ftbfs unreproducible help
Looking at recent results on https://tests.reproducible-builds.org/debian/rb-pkg/unstable/amd64/rhythmbox.html and related pages, it seems that there is an intermittent test failure in the test-case 'test-rhythmdb' which is causing the build to fail. The failing test's output on stdout includes > (null):-1:S:rhythmdb-core:test_rhythmdb_commit_change_merging:0: (after this > point) Received signal 5 (Trace/breakpoint trap) and on stderr includes > (test-rhythmdb:619356): Gtk-WARNING **: 16:41:34.672: cannot open display: :99 but I can't tell whether the GTK warning is the root cause, or unrelated noise. The test output is not shown when it passes (Meson's default behaviour), so it's difficult to compare a successful run with a failing run. Running the tests with `meson test -v`, so we can see the detailed output of successful tests and compare it with failing runs, might help. Or running xvfb-run with -noreset might help (see also <https://salsa.debian.org/xorg-team/xserver/xorg-server/-/merge_requests/6> and <https://bugs.debian.org/981201>). Or if someone can reproduce the test failure locally, we could look at a backtrace. smcv
