We have a few options to fix the issue. The one I'd prefer would be switching to systemd to depend on chrony as the preferred time-daemon because timesynd turns back time and that can cause issues like this one.
An other option is disabling systemd-timesyncd in the test VMs, that would make the tests more reproducible but less similar to real installations's behavour. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to systemd in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1880839 Title: Clock skew on testbeds Status in Auto Package Testing: New Status in systemd package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: Clock stepped backward on a testbed: https://objectstorage.prodstack4-5.canonical.com/v1/AUTH_77e2ada1e7a84929a74ba3b87153c0ac /autopkgtest- groovy/groovy/amd64/b/boost1.71/20200501_151103_1e387@/log.gz ... context FAIL stderr: make[2]: Warning: File '/tmp/tmp.qPfGPM84a1/src/demo2.cpp' has modification time 0.52 s in the future autopkgtest [13:55:37]: test context: - - - - - - - - - - stderr - - - - - - - - - - make[2]: Warning: File '/tmp/tmp.qPfGPM84a1/src/demo2.cpp' has modification time 0.52 s in the future make[2]: warning: Clock skew detected.
