Public bug reported: Something in the archive caused grub2 to start to FTBFS in cosmic as seen in the 2.02-2ubuntu9 version currently in cosmic-proposed:
https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/grub2/2.02-2ubuntu9 A no-change rebuild of 2.02-2ubuntu8 also fails in the same way. After some basic investigation, I have noticed that possibly something changed in qemu between bionic and cosmic, causing qemu-system-i386 to print out SeaBIOS output to the serial console. Some of the tests depend on reading output of qemu-system-i386 (through the serial console) and those are now failing as it is all prepended with bios output - while in bionic it was not. This might be only one part of the problem though. ** Affects: grub2 (Ubuntu) Importance: Critical 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/1775249 Title: grub2 FTBFS on amd64 and i386 due to test failures To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/grub2/+bug/1775249/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
