** Description changed: https://autopkgtest.ubuntu.com/packages/t/tor looks pretty bad. Some of the tests work in DebCI though, so I had a look. Not all might be fixable due to needing external network, but at least the tests should work in local execution by a developer. Finding #1 The initialization can be too slow. The test "download-release-file" does start TOR and right after starts to probe things. In a fast environment that can work, it likely will hit a few of the `curl --retry 5` and then be up. But even on my home connection it was initializing too slowly and later failed. The system should tolerate the TOR startup, no matter how fast it is. - Not just a blind sleep 5m or so, but retrying until TOD is really fully initialized. + Not just a blind sleep 5m or so, but retrying until TOR is really fully initialized. - The following made it work on my system where it took eventually (06:16 - to TODO) minutes to intialize. + The following made it work on my system where it took eventually + (15/22/63 depending on the try) minutes to initialize. ``` /usr/bin/tor -f torrc echo "Tor started." - + + + + # Do not rely on this to be super fast and curl --retry 5 to save us + # Init can take many minutes + echo "Waiting for Tor to complete bootstrapping..." + until ( echo 'authenticate'; echo 'getinfo status/bootstrap-phase'; echo 'quit' ) | \ + nc.openbsd -U ctl | tr -d '\r' | grep -q 'PROGRESS=100'; do + echo "Tor not yet fully initialized ($(date))" + sleep 30 + done + echo "Tor is fully bootstrapped!" torpid="$( ``` That made it download the release file just fine in my local case. The delay turned in the target network right before I'd ahve made it, one debugging showed e.g. ... 10 ffm-b5-link.ip.twelve99.net (80.239.194.136) 17.635 ms 13.935 ms 13.859 ms 11 ffm-bb1-link.ip.twelve99.net (62.115.114.88) 35.249 ms ffm-bb1-link.ip.twelve99.net (62.115.141.148) 35.454 ms ffm-bb1-link.ip.twelve99.net (62.115.136.212) 35.205 ms 12 nug-b2-link.ip.twelve99.net (62.115.140.203) 19.471 ms 18.634 ms 16.412 ms 13 anexiacloud-ic-379861.ip.twelve99-cust.net (213.248.86.71) 18.277 ms anexiacloud-ic-373322.ip.twelve99-cust.net (62.115.46.183) 18.021 ms anexiacloud-ic-379861.ip.twelve99-cust.net (213.248.86.71) 23.654 ms 14 94.16.25.159 (94.16.25.159) 31.673 ms 94.16.25.155 (94.16.25.155) 86.629 ms * 15 * * * ... Not debugging other peoples network, if I wait long enough the test finds a working peer, gets the information to build the TOR network and then succeeds.
