[Bug 2121793] Re: autopkgtest does not check the installed version

 

I did that at some point, but it regressed other autopkgtest testcases,
so I had to revert:

autopkgtest (5.45) unstable; urgency=medium

  [ Paride Legovini ]
  * Do not turn test deps from package under test into versioned deps.
    This reverts the change mentioned to fix #1052119 in version 5.44.

See also https://salsa.debian.org/ci-
team/autopkgtest/-/merge_requests/483.

That is still something I'd like to fix, but it's a hairy problem.

On your specific case here, I'd like to understand why those packages
are being held back.

  autopkgtest does not check the installed version

Status in autopkgtest package in Ubuntu:
  New
Status in autopkgtest package in Debian:
  Unknown

Bug description:
  The unmkinitramfs autopkgtest for initramfs-tools/0.150ubuntu1 failed
  with "3cpio: not found". What? That is a new dependency that I
  declared. Then I started debugging until I looked for the installation
  of initramfs-tools-core this:

  ```
  179s The following packages will be REMOVED:
  179s   systemd-resolved-dnssec
  179s The following packages have been kept back:
  179s   initramfs-tools initramfs-tools-core
  ```

  Full log:

  questing/questing/amd64/i/initramfs-
  tools/20250828_194325_31699@/log.gz

  Can autopkgtest please check that the version of the binaries provided
  the the package under test matches the version of the package under
  test please? Otherwise it does not test what it claims to test.
