koobs added the comment: This appears to have spontaneously resolved itself after build #957 after many failures. For reference, other builders on the same host were failing as well:
AMD64 FreeBSD CURRENT Debug 3.5 (#567, #568) AMD64 FreeBSD CURRENT Non-Debug 3.5 (#8, #9) And possibly others (Didn't listed any that hadn't failed in the last 5 builds) According to my (non-expert) reading of the code, the test skips (or is supposed to skip) unless group count of uid is > 1. The group membership of the buildbot user this worker runs as is only 'buildbot' and on that basis wouldn't a skip expected? Open questions are: 1) Why/how did it suddenly *start* failing. (I cant see any relevant commits at or around the time) 2) Why/how did it suddenly stop failing (I made no worker/buildbot changes Nosy vajrasky (original unit test creator) and Claudiu (who reviewed), who might be able to shine a light on what might be going on ---------- nosy: +Claudiu.Popa, vajrasky _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue27838> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
