Hi, when packaging monotone 1.1 for Debian, I decided to try enabling the network tests, to see how the Debian buildd infrastructure now copes with these (see [0]). After all, some of the tests now detect e.g. a broken or missing DNS server, so I had hopes for some more tests passing.
Mainly for future reference: Most of the arches build and test monotone 1.1 just fine. However, these three failed: armel, hurd-i386, kfreebsd-amd64. On armel (host alwyn): https://buildd.debian.org/status/fetch.php?pkg=monotone&arch=armel&ver=1.1-1&stamp=1399303079 the test db_opt_fallback_mechanisms fails with: mtn: network error: failed to connect: Network is unreachable The test well checks if DNS resolution works. If it does, it's assuming it can reach code.monotone.ca as well. An obvious bad assumption of mine. Sorry. The existing check is good and needed, but not sufficient. On hurd (host ironforge.sceen.net): https://buildd.debian.org/status/fetch.php?pkg=monotone&arch=hurd-i386&ver=1.1-1&stamp=1399334904 the following tests fail: netsync_hook_errcodes, netsync_key_hooks and netsync_negotiation. netsync seems to work via localhost. One error is related to a wrong exit code from a client in case of failure, so this may well be a real issue on Hurd. Hurd? On kfreebsd-amd64 (host fayrfax): https://buildd.debian.org/status/fetch.php?pkg=monotone&arch=kfreebsd-amd64&ver=1.1-1&stamp=1399287730 only one test fails, but that one really surprises me: log_dir It's puzzling because I'm running a build animal on that very platform. And the test doesn't seem related to the network at all. However, given tests with monotone 1.1 still don't cope well with a missing or dysfunctional network, I simply disable network tests for the Debian package, again. Fortunately, this also made the kfreebsd issue vanish. Regards Markus Wanner [0]: current Debian Package Auto-Building page for monotone: https://buildd.debian.org/status/package.php?p=monotone
