Package: zutils Version: 1.14-4 Severity: serious Justification: piuparts failure breaks testing migration Tags: patch X-Debbugs-Cc: jspri...@debian.org User: helm...@debian.org Usertags: dep17
Hi,
Jochen made me aware that zutils didn't pass piuparts. When I came up
with the previous patch, I foolishly concluded that I'd be better than
piuparts at coming up with tests and wrote tests that didn't cover the
obvious. I ran everything through my tests and didn't bother running
piuparts in the end. Now piuparts fails.
I introduced a logic inversion. When moving the diverted files on a
fresh installation, the .usr-is-merged suffix is appended whenever it
should not be and vice versa. It is the ${GZIP_PREFIX:+.usr-is-merged}
interpolation that is wrong.
For some reason beyond my comprehension, I ruled out dpkg --verify as a
tool for testing. Don't task me why. It finds this issue. Additionally,
I've also implemented manual verification of diverted files. The updated
tools now also fail with current unstable.
I'm attaching updated test cases as well as another patch. Let me know
if you prefer me to handle the upload. The patch now also handles
upgrading from the broken -4 version that never reached trixie. This
scenario is not covered by the attached tests, but I manually verified
that the wrongly moved files get corrected.
Last but not least, the attached version passes piuparts this time.
I'll also follow up with the unblock request.
I really hope that this is the last iteration for zutils.
Helmut
