Source: diffoscope Dear Maintainer,
While building diffoscope 61 on GNU Guix's "core-updates" branch (roughly analogous to Debian's testing branch), the test test_superblock fails like this: =================================== FAILURES =================================== _______________________________ test_superblock ________________________________ differences = [] @skip_unless_tool_is_older_than('unsquashfs', unsquashfs_version, '4.3') def test_superblock(differences): expected_diff = open(data('squashfs_superblock_expected_diff')).read() > assert differences[0].unified_diff == expected_diff E IndexError: list index out of range tests/comparators/test_squashfs.py:59: IndexError ============== 1 failed, 173 passed, 73 skipped in 12.80 seconds =============== We are using Python 3.5.2 and pytest 2.7.3. Please let me know what other information I can provide. What do you think? Does this test failure indicate a serious problem or is it safe to skip the test in our packaging?
