I should also note that the broken tests have nothing to do with
MapScript, these are just regular msautotest differences on Ubuntu
Focal. So, we're very close! Thanks all. -jeff

Hi all,
I thought I'd share some interesting updates from my side, for the 8.0
release:
- Travis and GitHub build actions have been updated to run on Ubuntu
Focal (20.04)
- the builds compile PHPNG MapScript for 7.4.6, 8.0.19, 8.1.6 / Python
MapScript 3.7.7, 3.8.3, 3.9.0 without any issues
- msautotests: I've made it down to about 20 broken tests (from about
200, yikes)
- of note, is that the existing flag "-Werror" while compiling MapServer
(which means break on all warnings, treat warnings as errors) does cause
issues in several files (mappwscommon.c, majoin.c), so the nasty
workaround is to set -Wno-stringop-overflow, -Wno-format-overflow in the
build script, which is not good, meaning that these warnings should be
fixed and -Werror reset.
You can follow along or made changes at
https://github.com/MapServer/MapServer/pull/6430
I think the upgrade to a more recent Ubuntu for all of our tests was
critical for the 8.0 release (which is why I put so much darn effort in
that).
Hope this looks good to everyone. Exciting,
-jeff
