Public bug reported: The Bionic DEP8 tests for iptables are in bad shape[1], even in the migration-reference/0 run.
There are two types of failures: a) some commands have an exit status of 1 when called with the -h (for help) option, which is what some tests do b) iptables-compat-save (and its IPv6 counterpart) also exit with status 1, even when there are chains/tables to save I'll propose: a) grep the help output instead of relying on the exit status b) call the command with the -d (dump) option. That doesn't exit 0 in the success case, and actually dumps data when there are tables to do so 1. https://autopkgtest.ubuntu.com/packages/i/iptables/bionic/amd64 ** Affects: iptables (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: Fix Released ** Affects: iptables (Ubuntu Bionic) Importance: Undecided Assignee: Andreas Hasenack (ahasenack) Status: In Progress ** Also affects: iptables (Ubuntu Bionic) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Changed in: iptables (Ubuntu Bionic) Status: New => In Progress ** Changed in: iptables (Ubuntu Bionic) Assignee: (unassigned) => Andreas Hasenack (ahasenack) ** Changed in: iptables (Ubuntu) Assignee: Andreas Hasenack (ahasenack) => (unassigned) ** Changed in: iptables (Ubuntu) Status: In Progress => Fix Released -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to iptables in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/2019022 Title: Bionic dep8 tests are failing Status in iptables package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in iptables source package in Bionic: In Progress Bug description: The Bionic DEP8 tests for iptables are in bad shape[1], even in the migration-reference/0 run.
