Package: autopkgtest
Version: 5.19
Severity: normal
It looks as if one of the necessary consoles is not set up properly on
armhf (it worked fine for me on arm64):
$ sudo autopkgtest-build-qemu \
--architecture armhf \
--mirror http://deb.debian.org/debian \
unstable armhf.img
...
$ autopkgtest libocas -- qemu \
--dpkg-architecture armhf \
-d --show-boot \
armhf.img
produces
| host login: autopkgtest-virt-qemu: DBG: expect: found "'login prompt on
serial console'"
| autopkgtest-virt-qemu: DBG: expect: b'ok'
| autopkgtest-virt-qemu: DBG: setup_shell(): no default shell on hvc1 or ttyS1
| qemu-system-arm: terminating on signal 15 from pid 1316826
(/usr/bin/python3)
| autopkgtest-virt-qemu: DBG: cleanup...
| <VirtSubproc>: failure: The VM does not start a root shell on ttyS1 or hvc1
already. The only other supported login mechanism is through --user and
--password on the guest ttyS0
[By the way, libocas is just a tiny library with no dependencies that I tend to
use
as a smoke test.]
Best,
