The test shall be disabled while the matter is investigated. [Test Case] Run the autopkgtest and observe the failure. With the version of the package in proposed the test will not be run. [Regression Potential] We are just disabling a broken test so there is none. apport's test test_add_gdb_info_abort_glib has been failing for a bit, since zesty(?), now. Digging into this matter I discovered that using gdb to "print __glib_assert_msg" is resulting in different behavior. With the generated binary, it used to return the following: $2 = 0x7fadc0 "ERROR:<stdin>:2:main: assertion failed (1 < 0): (1 < 0)" However, now I am seeing: (gdb) print __glib_assert_msg $1 = 1332592064 (gdb) print (char*) __glib_assert_msg $2 = 0x4f6dbdc0 <error: Cannot access memory at address 0x4f6dbdc0> This seems to be a regression in gdb itself, I've added an apport task though to track the disabling of the autopkgtest which utilizes this command.
