Since the "autopkgtest-build-lxd" script calls "lxd launch", and input queued to stdin when calling "autopkgtest-build-lxd" will cause the internal call to lxd to fail, such as calling "autopkgtest-build-lxd" from inside a here document (see test case below). the failure is seen in (at least) the "lxd" autopkgtest from the autopkgtest package itself, e.g.: https://objectstorage.prodstack4-5.canonical.com/v1/AUTH_77e2ada1e7a84929a74ba3b87153c0ac/autopkgtest-disco/disco/amd64/a/autopkgtest/20190923_160817_66dbe@/log.gz [test case] root@autopkgtest:~# cat <<EOF | su - ubuntu > autopkgtest-build-lxd ubuntu:bionic > echo ok done > EOF Error: yaml: unmarshal errors: line 1: cannot unmarshal !!str `echo ok...` into api.ContainerPut run the autopkgtests for the package 'autopkgtest', or check autopkgtest.ubuntu.com, e.g.: http://autopkgtest.ubuntu.com/packages/a/autopkgtest/disco/amd64 http://autopkgtest.ubuntu.com/packages/a/autopkgtest/disco/i386 http://autopkgtest.ubuntu.com/packages/a/autopkgtest/eoan/amd64 http://autopkgtest.ubuntu.com/packages/a/autopkgtest/eoan/i386 the autopkgtest test case is failing only for disco and eoan, and only for amd64/i386 as the 'lxd' test is skipped for non-intel archs. the autopkgtest test case does not fail on bionic or xenial, because the tests there run with the lxd deb, which is still at the older version. http://autopkgtest.ubuntu.com/packages/a/autopkgtest/bionic/amd64 However, the lxd snap can be installed in xenial or bionic, and the failure is reproducable when the lxd snap is installed, i.e.: $ sudo apt remove lxd $ sudo snap install lxd ...perform test case [regression potential] this only redirects stdin from /dev/null, for the call to 'lxc launch' inside autopkgtest-build-lxd; so the regression potential should be low. Any regressions would almost certainly involve a failure during the call to autopkgtest-build-lxd, during the creation of the lxd container. [other info] this is reproducable with the current packages from disco-updates using a local qemu vm for testing. note that the autopkgtest fails only for disco and eoan, becuase on xenial and bionic the lxd deb is used, which still has the older behavior, however the lxd snap is available to install on both xenial and bionic, so this problem still exists for both those releases, as well as disco and eoan. also, this is not just a testcase failure - this is actual new behavior that can break existing users of the "autopkgtest-build-lxd" script in the manner described in the test case. I put the 'importance' of this as low because this bug will only be reproduced when calling autopkgtest-build-lxd from inside a here document passed to a shell, or otherwise called with input queued on stdin, which seems like an unusual way to call autopkgest-build-lxd, although still a perfectly valid way to use it.
