[Pkg-libvirt-maintainers] Bug#844511: should libvirt be FTBFS at the moment due to the new gnutls?

[Christian Ehrhardt]

Package: libvirt
Version:  2.4.0-2

Hi,

#1 - not the bug, but required background
I ran into an issue on Ubuntu recently and along debugging I found that you
have the same issue in regard to the recent gnutls version breaking libvirt
autotests.
I work on that issue in
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libvirt/+bug/1641615 and I think
we need to get a fix upstream to libvirt for that and then pull that into
Debian and Ubuntu.

#2 - the bug?
But in regard to the Debian packaging I wondered why your build succeeds,
but found you have just the same issue.
Search:
https://buildd.debian.org/status/fetch.php?pkg=libvirt&arch=amd64&ver=2.4.0-2&stamp=1479241026
For: "FAIL: virnettlssessiontest"

I thought that on the amd64 build the FAIL_CHECK in d/rules should be set
and make this a test result a build breaking error, but it did not.

So I wonder - is it a bug that this actually "should" be a FTBFS for you as
well?
