"Other safe cases" mentions: FTBFS(Fails To Build From Source) can also be considered. Please note that in main the release process ensures that there are no binaries which are not built from a current source. Usually those bugs should only be SRUed in conjunction with another bug fix.
When this was written, autopkgtests did not exist. I think it would be reasonable to extend the policy to include autopkgtests by analogy. However, as this says, "usually those bugs should only be SRUed in conjunction with another bug fix". When there is no history of regressions being introduced in this package as a result of NOT having autopkgtests in place, I don't think we should do an SRU only to add a working test. I won't mark these bugs wontfix, but I am rejecting the upload in the meantime until there is another change needed to the package that would warrant an SRU. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to gnupg in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1825448 Title: gnupg2 autopkgtest 'simple-tests' should be included in x/b/c Status in gnupg package in Ubuntu: Invalid Status in gnupg2 package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in gnupg source package in Xenial: In Progress Status in gnupg2 source package in Xenial: In Progress Status in gnupg2 source package in Bionic: In Progress Status in gnupg2 source package in Cosmic: In Progress Bug description: [impact] b/c currently only have gpgv-win32 test, which is limited in what it tests and what archs it runs on. additionally, it always fails (see bug 1825186). x currently has no tests at all for gnupg or gnupg2. [test case] run autopkgtests for gnupg2 on b/c. [regession potential] adding a testcase may result in the testcase incorrectly failing in the future. [other info] this test case is cherry-picked from gnupg2 in disco. the test case required slight modification for gnupg v1, as 'Key-Type: default' only works with v2. Note that Xenial is the last release that carries gnupg v1; Bionic and later carry only gnupg v2.
