Public bug reported: apt-clone's tests have worked fine in wily (http://autopkgtest.ubuntu.com/packages/a/apt-clone/wily/amd64/) but started failing consistently in xenial (http://autopkgtest.ubuntu.com/packages/a/apt-clone/xenial/amd64/).
This can be reproduced fast in a simple schroot with the test deps installed: $ cd tests; PYTHONPATH=.. python3 test_clone_upgrade.py -v TestCloneUpgrade.test_clone_upgrade_synthetic [...] ====================================================================== FAIL: test_clone_upgrade_synthetic (__main__.TestCloneUpgrade) test clone upgrade with on-the-fly generated chroots ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Traceback (most recent call last): File "test_clone_upgrade.py", line 58, in test_clone_upgrade_synthetic self.assertTrue(len(cache.get_changes()) > 0) AssertionError: False is not true I added print('--------- %s -----\n%s\n-------------' % (meta, cache.get_changes())) to the test, and I get --------- ubuntu-standard ----- [] --------- ubuntu-desktop ----- [<Package: name:'libvisual-0.4-plugins' architecture='amd64' id:6857>] --------- kubuntu-desktop ----- [<Package: name:'libvisual-0.4-plugins' architecture='amd64' id:6857>, <Package: name:'lksctp-tools' architecture='amd64' id:9362>] --------- xubuntu-desktop ----- [<Package: name:'libvisual-0.4-plugins' architecture='amd64' id:6857>] So the check works for the metapackages except ubuntu-standard. More curiously, when running the test on wily *now*, it also fails, which suggests that perhaps the very late distro-info update for xenial may have influenced this? But I haven't the slightest idea what this test is trying to do, so I don't know how to fix this. ** Affects: apt-clone (Ubuntu) Importance: High Assignee: Michael Vogt (mvo) Status: New ** Changed in: apt-clone (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided => High ** Changed in: apt-clone (Ubuntu) Assignee: (unassigned) => Michael Vogt (mvo) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1510060 Title: test regression: TestCloneUpgrade.test_clone_upgrade_synthetic To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/apt-clone/+bug/1510060/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
