Can you help me find the answer? I guess you don't mean "the current
kernel of the suite under test" but rather a flavor? We use
autopkgtest-build-qemu, which uses vmdb2, to build the image. The kernel
used is also logged in the autopkgtest log, so you can also look it up :).
That was too trivial. I expected you had done something fancy (and
completely different from the normal test runs) to enable
isolation-machine ;-) (And while reading the log I didn't spot anything
interesting to answer my questions. But I didn't look outside the
sections of that specific test.)
Would Depends: linux-headers-generic work?
I don't know.
It does. If its spelled correctly ;-)
The corresponding changes for the autopkgtest are now in sid. Including
a change from Ubuntu to skip the test on low powered systems.
There has been migration test run on amd64 already and the new test got
skipped:
167s autopkgtest [09:50:25]: test test-dm-writeboost.sh:
[-----------------------
168s II: Checking for 14G available disk space...SKIP
168s autopkgtest [09:50:26]: test test-dm-writeboost.sh:
-----------------------]
The next check would have been for 8+ cpu cores.
So, yes, isolation-machine works^Wdoesn't fail for dm-writeboost but it
is not helpful for this package since it cannot provide the required
resources.
