ruby-gnome2's autopkgtest fails when run against GLib 2.60.x from unstable,
with 7 failures all similar to this:
Failure: test_gb(TestGLibFileUtils::#format_size)
/tmp/autopkgtest-lxc.6g_rx45a/downtmp/build.TEl/src/glib2/test/test-file-utils.rb:61:in
`test_gb'
58: end
59:
60: def test_gb
=> 61: assert_equal("1.0 GB", GLib.format_size(1000 * 1000 * 1000))
62: end
63:
64: def test_over_guint32_value
<"1.0 GB"> expected but was
<"1.0 GB">
I think the difference here is that the expected result has a space but
the actual result has a UTF-8 non-breaking space (U+00A0 NO-BREAK SPACE)
as a result of https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/glib/issues/1625 having
been fixed. This is a bit more obvious in the Python bindings:
$ python3
>>> from gi.repository import GLib
>>> GLib.format_size(1000*1000*1000)
'1.0\xa0GB'
This appears to have been fixed upstream in
https://github.com/ruby-gnome2/ruby-gnome2/commit/ac9762af255f276800e0863d1dd07ab9dd653d1b
(but note that I haven't tested that patch myself). Please consider
applying it.
Thanks,
