Additional IRC log with some useful information: <ddstreet> hey guys, just fyi, i opened lp #1824237 because the core snap in cosmic appears broken, and is causing autopkgtest failures for several pkgs (at least snapd and docker.io, maybe more) 23:30 <mup> Bug #1824237: snap 'core' broken/missing and causing autopkgtest failures <snapd (Ubuntu):New> <snapd (Ubuntu Cosmic):New> <https://launchpad.net/bugs/1824237> 23:41 <zyga> ddstreet: ack, thank you 23:41 I will discuss with the team tomorrow 23:41 <ddstreet> thnx! 23:41 <zyga> (I didn't mean to ping you ack) 23:41 <ddstreet> np, i haven't left yet :) 23:41 <zyga> ddstreet: is it reproducible? 23:41 <ddstreet> yep, every time 23:41 <zyga> perfect 23:41 well, at least it's not a heisenbug 23:46 ddstreet: do we have system log from an affected system? 23:46 ddstreet: did something unmount core but it is still present and can be mounted (the mount unit can be started) 23:46 <ddstreet> zyga i only see it in autopkgtests 23:46 <zyga> ddstreet: can we reproduce this with an interactive shell somehow>? 23:46 <ddstreet> sure, you familiar with running autopkgtests? 23:46 <zyga> so-so 23:46 <zyga> not in a distro context 23:46 I only used qemu 23:47 <ddstreet> so if you get the latest snapd dsc, e.g. 'pull-lp-source snapd cosmic' 23:47 then install autopkgtest pkg 23:48 then you can do 'autopkgtest -s -U snapd_2.38+18.10.dsc -- lxd ubuntu:cosmic' 23:48 the -s will stop on the failed test, and let you ssh into it 23:48 <zyga> this is brilliant, let me try at once 23:48 <ddstreet> personally, i use qemu, not lxd, so not sure if the lxd test will let you ssh in 23:48 <zyga> I prefer qemu too 23:48 more easy to recover :) 23:48 <ddstreet> to run a test with qmeu instead of lxd, you can just do 'autopkgtest-buildvm-ubuntu-cloud -r cosmic' 23:49 <ddstreet> and it will download and set up a .img file in your local dir 23:49 then, just replace the '-- lxd ubuntu:cosmic' with '-- qemu IMGFILE' 23:49 replacing IMGFILE of course 23:49 i'm about to eod but i'll be around tomorrow if i can help 23:49 <zyga> thank you 23:49 this is very useful 23:50 with this we can look around and have some theories as to what happened 23:50 I'm past EOD so I will only look deeper in the morning 23:50 <ddstreet> yep, hopefully it's clear once you get into the test env :) 23:50 ok sounds good, thnx! 23:50 <zyga> thank you, good night!
