We're supposed to synthesise an "unknown" version for these, but a bug
in the worker meant we didn't do that in some cases and these leaked
into swift. Let's repair it client-side.
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.
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.
We only want to add packages which conflict in testing, but don't
conflict in unstable. For those, the newer version (from unstable)
probably fixes the conflict.
Currently when a package is uninstallable on an arch, no autopkgtests for that arch are triggered
and the autopkgtest policy blocks migration. However it's not the job of the autopkgtest policy
to judge uninstallability and packages that build an arch:all package that just isn't installable
on the autopkgtest arch should not be blocked for this.
Closes: #918620
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.
When there is no test in testing, and a failing test in unstable, don't
allow the package to migrate. Doing so would make it instantly RC-buggy.

The update of gcc to gcc-9 introduced a regression in buildability of
anything relying on kernel headers. This could have been caught by the
kernel's standard rebuild autopkgtest, but we currently only trigger the
linux autopkgtest for source packages named gcc-N, which excludes
gcc-defaults.
Include gcc-defaults in the list of packages that trigger a linux rebuild
test.

The intialise method is already complex enough and this was a trivial
snippet to extract to reduce the complexity a bit.

When we convert legacy results in the autopkgtest-results.cache file,
we are only touching leaf results. By moving the loops into a
function, we can remove 2-3 levels of ("redundant") nesting. This in
turn makes it more clear what is relevant in the conversion.
This same also holds in save_state when we convert an Enum to a
string.

The recent code changes made use remove from the "binaries" field in
SourcePackages. Lists are not particularly optimized for this kind
of removal and we have a few source packages with a lot of binary
packages (e.g. libreoffice, gcc-X-cross{,-ports}) that might trip
poor performance.

apply_src_policy expects an excuse with a new source and binaries. It doesn't
apply to srcarch excuses, which only have new binaries for an existing source.

Currently autopkgtest tries to install our trigger from unstable and the rest
from testing. If that fails, than autopkgtest has a fall-back to allow all
packages from unstable to be installed. This has two severe issues:
1) the version of the test and the package it came from may be out-of-sync
2) too much from unstable may be installed, even stuff that should not/is not
allowed to migrate as it breaks stuff.
Make sure that test depends also get added to triggers if they are broken.
E.g. imagine the following scenario: trigger X changes (breaks) the output
generated by Y. Package Z has Y in the test dependencies and compares the
output in the autopkgtest. We want to have the opportunity that a new version
is automatically fixing the situation.
Two use cases are currently unsupported: needs-build (autopkgtest restriction)
and test dependencies generated by autodep8.
In case autopkgtest triggering is delayed because the required builds aren't
ready yet or the package is not installable, currently there is only the
message that autopktest delays the migration, but no hint why. This commit adds
these hints.
