Package: autopkgtest Version: 5.17 Severity: normal Dear Maintainer,
I noticed that the dependency of each test is added to the dependencies of the following tests For example: debian/tests/control contains: Test-Command: /usr/lib/android-sdk/build-tools/19.1.0/aapt v Depends: google-android-build-tools-19.1.0-installer Test-Command: /usr/lib/android-sdk/build-tools/20.0.0/aapt v Depends: google-android-build-tools-20.0.0-installer Test-Command: /usr/lib/android-sdk/build-tools/21.1.2/aapt v Depends: google-android-build-tools-21.1.2-installer The observer behaviour is: - for the test #1, it installs: google-android-build-tools-19.1.0-installer - for the test #2, it installs: google-android-build-tools-19.1.0-installer & google-android-build-tools-20.0.0-installer - for the test #3, it installs: google-android-build-tools-19.1.0-installer & google-android-build-tools-20.0.0-installer & google-android-build- tools-21.1.2-installer And so on... The packages named here are packages build by the source package that is being tested Is this expected? I expected to have only the declared Dependency to be installed, but it seems they are cumulative. Thank you. -- System Information: Debian Release: 11.1 APT prefers stable-updates APT policy: (991, 'stable-updates'), (991, 'stable'), (95, 'testing'), (90, 'unstable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 Kernel: Linux 5.10.0-8-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU threads) Kernel taint flags: TAINT_PROPRIETARY_MODULE, TAINT_OOT_MODULE, TAINT_UNSIGNED_MODULE Locale: LANG=fr_FR.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=fr_FR.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE=fr:en_US Shell: /bin/sh linked to /usr/bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) LSM: AppArmor: enabled Versions of packages autopkgtest depends on: ii apt-utils 2.2.4 ii libdpkg-perl 1.20.9 ii procps 2:3.3.17-5 ii python3 3.9.2-3 ii python3-debian 0.1.39 Versions of packages autopkgtest recommends: ii autodep8 0.24 Versions of packages autopkgtest suggests: pn lxc <none> pn lxd <none> pn ovmf <none> pn qemu-efi-aarch64 <none> pn qemu-efi-arm <none> pn qemu-system <none> ii qemu-utils 1:5.2+dfsg-11 ii schroot 1.6.10-12 ii vmdb2 0.22-1
