[Launchpad Bug Tracker <1704979@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

This bug was fixed in the package ubuntu-image - 1.1+16.04ubuntu4

---------------
ubuntu-image (1.1+16.04ubuntu4) xenial; urgency=medium

  * Drop part of the xenial delta, adding the fakeroot dependency as per master.
    Properly handling the lack of the dependency and still getting 100% code
    coverage on all series requires too much unnecessary work.  (LP: #1709029)

ubuntu-image (1.1+16.04ubuntu3) xenial; urgency=medium

  * Only run the snap.sh test on github PRs as it doesn't make sense to run it
    as part of regular deb package migration.  (LP: #1704979)

ubuntu-image (1.1+16.04ubuntu1) xenial; urgency=medium

  [ Łukasz 'sil2100' Zemczak ]
  * SRU tracking number LP: #1702933
  * Fix snapcraft.yaml for classic snappage.  (LP:1673576)
  * Add a new step in the builder that generates .manifest files listing all
    snaps installed in the resulting image.  (LP:1680574)
  * Further fixes to snapcraft.yaml, making sure that we only have one
    ubuntu-image version installed in the snap.  (LP:1692901)
  * Move files around during snap build to have all needed libraries and python
    files in common accessible paths, install missing dependencies into the
    snap.  (LP:1694982, LP:1694993)

  [ Michael Vogt ]
  * Use fakeroot when running mkfs.ext4.  (LP:1702628)

  [ Steve Langasek ]
  * Add fakeroot to the snapcraft.yaml and as a test dep.  (LP:1702628)

Bug description:
  [Impact]

  With the current ubuntu-image 1.1, it is impossible for the package to
  migrate to the release pocket as the autopkgtests for armhf, ppc64el
  and arm64 will fail (the snap.sh test). This test does not make sense
  to be run as part of .deb migration as it's testing snap buildability
  - it's a bad idea to mix those two worlds.

  [Test Case]

  Make sure that all the autopkgtests pass for all architectures (with
  the snap.sh test skipped).

  [Regression Potential]

  None. This is only a test change. Skipping the test on package
  migration introduces no real possibility of regressions. Snap
  buildability is checked during the github source CI for each pull-
  request. Besides, snap buildability is a feature of the source that is
  not used by the .deb parts and is completely irrelevant to users.

  [Original Description]

  We have an autopkgtest called snap.sh that checks if we're able to
  properly build an ubuntu-image snap from the current source and that
  the resulting tool is usable. This test started failing with ubuntu-
  image 1.1 for armhf, ppc64el and s390x.

  By checking the test logs, this test was never really working for
  archs other than amd64 and i386. The snap never really got properly
  built and installed, and the test only passed because, for some
  reason, ubuntu-image was available as a deb (you can see it in the old
  logs by examining the ubuntu-image --version output, stating a non-
  snap version number). Starting with changes from 1.1, we now have some
  tests that make sure the deb is not installed.

  In theory building the ubuntu-image snap should be possible on all arches. In practice, on all the fancy archs basically the core snap is *always* failing to install with:
  error: cannot communicate with server: Post http://localhost/v2/snaps/core: dial unix /run/snapd.socket: connect: connection refused

  This doesn't seem to be a transient error. This causes ubuntu-image to
  not migrate.
