Package: autopkgtest
Severity: normal

Hello,

The starpu package migration status exposes an interesting issue:

https://qa.debian.org/excuses.php?package=starpu

The armel and armhf archs get a regression on the eztrace package, for
instance on armel:

https://ci.debian.net/packages/e/eztrace/testing/armel/44565975/

What happens is that:

- the testbed preparation for the first test (command1) installs the
non-t64 libraries

libevent-core-2.1-7 libevent-pthreads-2.1-7 libopen-trace-format2-10 
libopenmpi3 libpmix2

from testing.

- Then other tests install other packages from testing.

- The last test (command9) is the one that actually tries to install the
newer libstarpu-dev library from unstable. autopkgtest first realizes
that asking apt to pull only starpu from unstable won't work (since it
depends on some other t64 libraries), so it tries again with enabling
unstable for all packages:

autopkgtest: WARNING: Test dependencies are unsatisfiable with using apt 
pinning. Retrying with using all packages from unstable

- But apparently apt does not like replacing

libevent-core-2.1-7 libevent-pthreads-2.1-7 libopen-trace-format2-10 
libopenmpi3 libpmix2

with

libevent-core-2.1-7t64 libevent-pthreads-2.1-7t64 libopen-trace-format2-10t64 
libopenmpi3t64 libpmix2t64

Then autopkgtest runs apt a last time to get more information:

autopkgtest: WARNING: Test dependencies are unsatisfiable - calling apt install 
on test deps directly for further data about failing dependencies in test logs

which does happen to find the expected solution, but autopkgtest stops
there.

Should we perhaps make autopkgtest really try this last attempt?

We have been and still are working on several merge requests that should improve the situation in these weird times: https://salsa.debian.org/ci- team/autopkgtest/-/merge_requests


While I'm not 100% sure that we fixed exactly this issue, we did make improvements so I'm closing this bug report for now. Also apt switched its solver recently, so it should also be better on this front now.
