Public bug reported: The fix for bug 1621629 was incorrect in that it will try to process every download again in the event that there is one failed hook file. This is illustrated by the new test test_only_retry_failure test in test_package-data-downloader.py.
This was fixed during the development of yakkety, but xenial is still affected by this bug e.g. ====================================================================== FAIL: test_only_retry_failure (test_package-data-downloader.ProcessDownloadRequestsTestCase) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Traceback (most recent call last): File "/home/bdmurray/source-trees/update-notifier/update-notifier-3.168.2/tests/test_package-data-downloader.py", line 186, in test_only_retry_failure self.assertEqual(new_stamp_date, orig_stamp_date) AssertionError: 1479256982.3473485 != 1479256982.3033488 The fix which was added in r891 of the bzr branch should be SRU'ed to Ubuntu 16.04. ** Affects: update-notifier (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: Invalid ** Summary changed: - package-data-downloader will reprocess success downloads + package-data-downloader will reprocess successful downloads ** Changed in: update-notifier (Ubuntu) Status: New => Invalid -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1642093 Title: package-data-downloader will reprocess successful downloads To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/update-notifier/+bug/1642093/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
