On some distros (Ubuntu), arch:all packages are built along with one of
the architectures. We shouldn't be listing 'all' as its own arch in this
case. Instead we filter out the binaries except for on the
'all_buildarch'.
The apt version comparison sorts 'blacklisted' greater than most version
numbers, which means that we accidentally apply force hints for version
'blacklisted' to all uploads. Since this is the only case of a hacked
version number, let's special case it so that 'blacklisted' hints only
match packages with 'blacklisted' version.
This is a test carried over from Ubuntu which ensures that a package
which builds no binaries on an arch doesn't have tests requested.
It was disabled. Enable it.
Most DKMS packages do not declare Testsuite: autopkgtest-pkg-dkms, but
we can detect this anyway, and this way we can enforce that the module
is buildable.
It works like this. We wait until all tests have finished running. and
then grab their results. If there are any regressions, we mail each bug
with a link to pending-sru.html. There's a state file which records the
mails we've sent out, so that we don't mail the same bug multiple times.
We want to treat linux-$flavor and linux-meta-$flavor as one set in
britney which goes in together or not at all. We never want to promote
linux-$flavor without the accompanying linux-meta-$flavor.
Add a new LinuxPolicy which runs after most of the other policies, which
invalidates linux-foo if linux-meta-foo is invalid.
For packages with lots of reverse dependencies, new versions of those reverse
dependencies may keep on showing up in testing. If migration is blocked until
the results for these new version, migration may take extremely long. If there
are results for the current trigger but for the previous version of the reverse
dependency, use those until the fresh resuts are available.
Similar for the reference runs.
Currently, britney only schedules reference runs when they don't exist. It does
strip out runs against older versions of the autopkgtest, but the current version
may exist for a while and the reference run can be old. So, add an option to
ignore old results.
Because autopkgtest failure in a package is now a serious bug (RC), packages
that don't opt-in should not be tested. Due to the way autopkgtest and autodep8
work together, package that don't declare they have an autopkgtest can still be
tested. However, maintainers should not be force to say their package doesn't
work with autodep8 by introducing a fake test.
