Unfortunately, just suppressing the Qt tests doesn't fix this. It turns out that, on zesty, the tests for all architectures fail. It looks like a problem with taglib. Every test that tries to extract artwork from an ogg video file fails.
There is also a segfault in the thumbnailer test. That failure is either caused by a problem with max_size_in_bytes(), or by a problem in gsettings on zesty. Need to follow up. There are also a bunch of gstreamer critical messages in the test log: 10: (vs-thumb:9542): GStreamer-CRITICAL **: Registering meta implementation 'GstVideoMeta' without init function 10: thumbnailer-service: [22:50:37.499] "thumbnail: /<<BUILDDIR>>/thumbnailer-2.4+17.04.20161108/tests/media/testvideo.ogg (256,256): 0.832444 [q: 0.000001, d: 0.524390] sec (MISS)" These are not normal, need to figure out what is going on there. It doesn't look like this will be a quick fix :-( -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to thumbnailer in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1640326 Title: FTBFS on zesty Status in thumbnailer package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: Hello, A no change rebuild on zesty FTBFS, is "zesty" not encoded somehow in the test suite exclusions?
