Public bug reported: snapd autopkgtests currently depend on ppa:snappy-dev/ubuntu/image to be populated in some way (so that it has a Release / InRelease file). This breaks on new releases (zesty would previously fail due to no packages being published for that release in the PPA).
See https://objectstorage.prodstack4-5.canonical.com/v1/AUTH_77e2ada1e7a84929a74ba3b87153c0ac /autopkgtest-zesty/zesty/amd64/s/snapd/20161031_232419_44ec5@/log.gz Furthermore, this appears to me as risking to introduce unexpected behavior in the tests -- in some cases, tests may show false positives and successfully be promoted from -proposed due to the use of extra packages from the PPA which may fix the issue. Similarly, one could expect false negative due to the use of packages not from the official release. ** Affects: snapd (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1639305 Title: autopkgtests depend on a PPA being populated To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/snapd/+bug/1639305/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
