Public bug reported: xenial mir builds recently started failing as follows:
https://launchpadlibrarian.net/442878565/buildlog_ubuntu-xenial- amd64.mir_1.4.0+dev83-g939ca20348-0ubuntu16.04_BUILDING.txt.gz ERROR:src/umockdev.c:4991:umockdev_testbed_create_node_for_device: assertion failed: (Linux.openpty (out ptym, out ptys, ptyname_array, null, null) == 0) I'm fairly sure that this is because the new livecd-rootfs-built xenial buildd base images include makedev, which was Priority: required in xenial (but not in later releases) but not in the historical buildd chroots. The best approach is likely to be to just take makedev out again. [Test Case] Run a buildd image build and make sure that makedev is gone from the resulting images. If possible, run a mir build and test that it works now, though this is likely to be arduous; we probably don't need to put too much effort into this given that reverting buildd base image upgrades is now a quick operation. (We can't upgrade the base images until this is in -updates.) [Regression Potential] This is mostly a reversion to a previous known- working state, so I'm not too worried, but we need to make sure that buildd images are still buildable and keep a close eye on builds immediately after upgrading to new images. ** Affects: livecd-rootfs (Ubuntu Xenial) Importance: High Assignee: Colin Watson (cjwatson) Status: Fix Committed ** Also affects: livecd-rootfs (Ubuntu Xenial) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Changed in: livecd-rootfs (Ubuntu Xenial) Status: New => In Progress ** Changed in: livecd-rootfs (Ubuntu Xenial) Importance: Undecided => High ** Changed in: livecd-rootfs (Ubuntu Xenial) Assignee: (unassigned) => Colin Watson (cjwatson) ** No longer affects: livecd-rootfs (Ubuntu) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1844504 Title: xenial buildd chroots shouldn't have makedev To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/xenial/+source/livecd-rootfs/+bug/1844504/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
