Rather than add to the overhead of getting this change accepted, I'm going to roll back the DEB_BUILD_OPTS=nocheck change given it's unrelated to this bug (per the freeze policy https://release.debian.org/jessie/freeze_policy.html). I'll roll it back in after the freeze.
Proposed change to 0.11.0-4 looks like this: $ debdiff ~/Source/hiredis_0.11.0-4.dsc ../hiredis_0.11.0-5.dsc gpgv: Signature made Sun 30 Nov 2014 01:12:44 PM PST using RSA key ID 6C6608D1 gpgv: Can't check signature: public key not found dpkg-source: warning: failed to verify signature on /home/tom/Source/debian/hiredis_0.11.0-5.dsc diff -Nru hiredis-0.11.0/debian/changelog hiredis-0.11.0/debian/changelog --- hiredis-0.11.0/debian/changelog 2014-10-03 20:30:13.000000000 -0700 +++ hiredis-0.11.0/debian/changelog 2014-11-30 13:09:15.000000000 -0800 @@ -1,3 +1,9 @@ +hiredis (0.11.0-5) unstable; urgency=medium + + * Disable a network test failing in pbuilder (closes: #770648) + + -- Tom Lee <deb...@tomlee.co> Mon, 24 Nov 2014 00:17:31 -0800 + hiredis (0.11.0-4) unstable; urgency=medium * Symlinks for cmake 3.0 (closes: #758548) diff -Nru hiredis-0.11.0/debian/patches/04_disable-network-tests.patch hiredis-0.11.0/debian/patches/04_disable-network-tests.patch --- hiredis-0.11.0/debian/patches/04_disable-network-tests.patch 1969-12-31 16:00:00.000000000 -0800 +++ hiredis-0.11.0/debian/patches/04_disable-network-tests.patch 2014-11-29 22:36:40.000000000 -0800 @@ -0,0 +1,25 @@ +Description: Disable "Returns error when host cannot be resolved" + This patch disables a test that relies on the presence of a + network connection. +Author: Tobias Frost <t...@debian.org> +--- +This patch header follows DEP-3: http://dep.debian.net/deps/dep3/ +--- a/test.c ++++ b/test.c +@@ -282,12 +282,16 @@ + static void test_blocking_connection_errors(void) { + redisContext *c; + ++#if 0 + test("Returns error when host cannot be resolved: "); + c = redisConnect((char*)"idontexist.local", 6379); + test_cond(c->err == REDIS_ERR_OTHER && + (strcmp(c->errstr,"Name or service not known") == 0 || + strcmp(c->errstr,"Can't resolve: idontexist.local") == 0)); + redisFree(c); ++#else ++ test("SKIPPED: Returns error when host cannot be resolved\n"); ++#endif + + /*test("Returns error when the port is not open: "); + c = redisConnect((char*)"localhost", 1); diff -Nru hiredis-0.11.0/debian/patches/series hiredis-0.11.0/debian/patches/series --- hiredis-0.11.0/debian/patches/series 2014-10-03 20:30:13.000000000 -0700 +++ hiredis-0.11.0/debian/patches/series 2014-11-24 00:11:32.000000000 -0800 @@ -1,3 +1,4 @@ 01_use-proper-destdir.patch 02_disable-failing-test.patch 03_pkgconfig-cmake.patch +04_disable-network-tests.patch On Sun, Nov 30, 2014 at 12:59 PM, Tom Lee <deb...@tomlee.co> wrote: > D'oh :) There I go making assumptions. > > All the same, I feel like we can argue back and forth about the severity > of this issue but we've got a potential fix ready to go.
