hi FAbio,

On Sat Aug 31, 2024 at 11:54 AM CEST, Fabio Fantoni wrote:

I've noticed for a long time (maybe years) that most of the packages in
DDPO have Piuparts tests failing because of long-standing errors of
other packages and then consequently also block many more dependent on
them making difficult to find real problems related to the selected package.

Here's an example:

0m52.0s INFO: Warning: Package purging left files on system:
  /etc/X11/Xsession.d/     owned by: dbus-user-session

0m52.0s ERROR: FAIL: After purging files have been modified:
  /etc/systemd/system/timers.target.wants/dpkg-db-backup.timer -> /lib/systemd/system/dpkg-db-backup.timer     not owned

(taken from https://piuparts.debian.org/stable2sid/fail/xapps-common_2.8.5-1.log)

Has anyone else noticed this?

Is there a way to avoid this and finally be able to use
piuparts.debian.org to find any rare issues that escape Salsa CI and
manual tests?

manually, yes, at least as far as obsolete conffiles is concerned, by looking at
adequate(1)'s output (which piuparts runs):

% wget https://piuparts.debian.org/stable2sid/fail/xapps-common_2.8.5-1.log -q -O - | grep ': obsolete-conffile' | sort -u
xapps-common: obsolete-conffile /etc/X11/Xsession.d/80xapp-gtk3-module

of course, ideally, piuparts whould be modified to drop all of the "Package purging left files on system" warnings, given that that's covered by adequate.

(fwiw, one can also run adequate as part of autopkgtest -- see /usr/share/doc/adequate/README -- but that wouldn't detect obsolete conffiles, as that requires an install/upgrade sequence, which is what piuparts does among other things)
