Hello Chris, Thank you very much for bringing this issue to my attention. I have forwarded this issue to both the upstream and upstream^2 authors at https://github.com/mostafah/fsync/issues/5. (github/spf13/fsync was forked from github.com/mostafah/fsync in order to add "Afero" filesystem abstraction support. And indeed, I think you have discovered not only one, but two separate problems! > Me: > dh_auto_test -O--buildsystem=golang > go test -v github.com/spf13/fsync > === RUN TestSync > --- FAIL: TestSync (0.01s) > fsync_test.go:136: modification time for "dst" is 2015-10-18 > 17:53:51.170102485 +0000 UTC, should be 2015-10-18 17:53:51.166102492 +0000 > UTC. > FAIL Here, the modification times are off by milliseconds. I can reliably produce this like so: cd $GOPATH/src/github.com/spf13/fsync go test -c ./fsync.test -test.count 1000 Roughly 10% of the repeated tests would fail on my computer, whether it is with ext4 or with tmpfs. The upstream author investigated and confirmed the bug, and is thinking how to best solve this problem. > Builder: > fsync_test.go:136: modification time for "dst/a/b" is 2015-10-17 > 16:23:22.048 +0000 UTC, should be 2015-10-17 15:23:22.051578088 +0000 UTC. > fsync_test.go:136: modification time for "dst/c" is 2015-10-17 > 16:23:22.048 +0000 UTC, should be 2015-10-17 15:23:22.051578088 +0000 UTC. Here, the modification times are off by an hour. I wonder if it had anything to do with daylight saving times at TZ=Etc/GMT-14 or some other intentionally weird build conditions at jenkins.debian.net. I haven't been able to reproduce it yet myself. But I am going to chicken out and just fix this FTBFS bug like this: override_dh_auto_test: dh_auto_test -O--buildsystem=golang || : Hope the build systems will still trigger the second bug and show it in the buildlog so we can investigate further, but let it pass without complaining. :-) Thanks again, Chris!
