I did a manual run and reproduced the error. It also happens on a current (July 21) xenial cloud image, not just on the rather outdated adt image from April 20.
autopkgtest.service failing is a consequence of https://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/autopkgtest/autopkgtest.git/commit/?id=eff773b -- i. e. previously the error was hidden because it was a backgrounded SysV init job. So there is a /dev/ttyS1 in the VM (otherwise ConditionPathExists=/dev/ttyS1 would fail), but trying to talk to it fails: $ sudo cat </dev/ttyS1 cat: -: Input/output error which is reflected in Main PID: 1386 (code=exited, status=208/STDIN) I added a workaround in https://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/autopkgtest/autopkgtest.git/commit/?id=99717f142 . ** Also affects: autopkgtest (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Changed in: autopkgtest (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided => High ** Changed in: autopkgtest (Ubuntu) Status: New => Fix Committed ** Changed in: autopkgtest (Ubuntu) Assignee: (unassigned) => Martin Pitt (pitti) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to systemd in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1607075 Title: systemd 229-4ubuntu7 ADT test failure with linux 4.4.0-33.52 Status in autopkgtest package in Ubuntu: Fix Committed Status in systemd package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: Testing failed on: ppc64el: https://objectstorage.prodstack4-5.canonical.com/v1/AUTH_77e2ada1e7a84929a74ba3b87153c0ac/autopkgtest-xenial/xenial/ppc64el/s/systemd/20160727_170251@/log.gz To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/autopkgtest/+bug/1607075/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~touch-packages Post to : touch-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~touch-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
