Package: src:python-os-collect-config
Version: 14.0.1-1
Severity: serious
Tags: ftbfs forky sid patch
Dear maintainer:
During a rebuild of all packages in unstable, this package failed to build.
Below you will find the last part of the build log (probably the most
relevant part, but not necessarily). If required, the full build log
is available here:
https://people.debian.org/~sanvila/build-logs/202609/
Notes:
* The failing tests are these two:
FAIL: os_collect_config.tests.test_collect.TestConf.test_setup_conf
FAIL: os_collect_config.tests.test_ec2.TestEc2.test_collect_ec2_collected
but it may be the case that not always both of them fail.
* I can reproduce the issue on machines with 1 CPU and 2 CPUs,
but the failure rate is a lot higher (around 100%) on machines with 1 CPU.
* I asked DeepSeek V4 Flash about the reason for these failures, and
apparently the problem is that there is not enough cleanup between one test
and the next one.
It offered me the attached patch, which I tried and it seems to work.
The usual caveats apply. My recommendation is that you forward
the issue upstream to begin with. The patch may not be perfect
but the fact that it seems to work is a very good hint about
the nature of the problem.
About the archive rebuild: The build was made on virtual machines from AWS,
using sbuild and a reduced chroot with only build-essential packages.
If you cannot reproduce the bug please contact me privately, as I
am willing to provide ssh access to a virtual machine where the bug is
fully reproducible.
If this is really a bug in one of the build-depends, please use
reassign and add an affects on src:python-os-collect-config, so that this is
still
visible in the BTS web page for this package.
Thanks.
