Hi PIM Developers, A few months back I reported an issue surrounding tests in various parts of PIM which rely on Akonadi failing to cleanup after themselves, and thus causing indefinite hangs on the CI system as they wait for processes to exit which aren't going to exit by themselves.
This issue is still very much active unfortunately, and is particularly problematic for the FreeBSD and Windows builders (as there is a limited number of them). This morning, all FreeBSD builds were blocked by two PIM jobs just sitting there. Once again, akonadi_knut_resource had failed to exit as it should. This is a situation which cannot continue, as PIM is harming the service all other KDE projects receive from the CI system through these broken tests. It also requires manual Sysadmin intervention to restore service when this occurs. I therefore suggest that you disable on your side, all tests that depend on or make use of the 'akonaditest' runner framework across all PIM repositories. The alternative is that all test execution for PIM be disabled. Thoughts? Regards, Ben
