Public bug reported: [Impact] test-pdiff-usage is somewhat flaky, especially on Debian, this makes it less flaky. No end user impact as it's a test-only change.
[Test plan] Running autopkgtest, which runs our extensive integration test suite which includes the changed test. [Where problems could occur] No end user regression potential on its own, but might slightly change regression potential for future pdiff changes: Test approach is slightly different now. It still catches that updates fail correctly, but tests more concretely that a transaction was aborted rather than that no worker received work (which was not guaranteed, the work could be scheduled before it was aborted). ** Affects: apt (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: Fix Committed ** Affects: apt (Ubuntu Bionic) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Affects: apt (Ubuntu Focal) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Affects: apt (Ubuntu Groovy) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Also affects: apt (Ubuntu Focal) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Also affects: apt (Ubuntu Groovy) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Also affects: apt (Ubuntu Bionic) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to apt in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1918920 Title: Harden test for no new acquires after transaction abort Status in apt package in Ubuntu: Fix Committed Status in apt source package in Bionic: New Status in apt source package in Focal: New Status in apt source package in Groovy: New Bug description: [Impact] test-pdiff-usage is somewhat flaky, especially on Debian, this makes it less flaky.
