[Bug 1830823] Re: Ubuntu image builds broken for powerpc on xenial

 

Hello Robert, or anyone else affected,

Accepted livecd-rootfs into xenial-proposed. The package will build now
and be available at https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/livecd-
rootfs/2.408.50 in a few hours, and then in the -proposed repository.

Please help us by testing this new package.  See
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation on how
to enable and use -proposed.  Your feedback will aid us getting this
update out to other Ubuntu users.

If this package fixes the bug for you, please add a comment to this bug,
mentioning the version of the package you tested and change the tag from
verification-needed-xenial to verification-done-xenial. If it does not
fix the bug for you, please add a comment stating that, and change the
tag to verification-failed-xenial. In either case, without details of
your testing we will not be able to proceed.

Further information regarding the verification process can be found at
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/PerformingSRUVerification .  Thank you in
advance for helping!

N.B. The updated package will be released to -updates after the bug(s)
fixed by this package have been verified and the package has been in
-proposed for a minimum of 7 days.

** Changed in: livecd-rootfs (Ubuntu Xenial)
       Status: Fix Released => Fix Committed

Bug description:
  [Impact]

  Currenty powerpc image builds are failing on xenial. livecd-rootfs is
  used to build our Ubuntu images and it depends on ubuntu-image.  With
  ubuntu-image 1.7 the snapd dependency was bumped to >= 2.38; which is
  not satisfiable on powerpc because snapd is not buildable on powerpc
  with gccgo (vs golang).

  Also, besides that, it seems that livecd-rootfs was directly depending
  on snapd as well. To save ourselves trouble, let's make that
  dependency arch-specific.

  [Test Case]

  Build test images on powerpc, those should now succeed.

  [Regression Potential]

  None. This is only an arch-specific dependency change which was never
  used (as it was not possible to work).

  [Original Description]

  livecd-rootfs is used to build our Ubuntu images and it depends on ubuntu-image.  With ubuntu-image 1.7 being published to xenial-updates the diff
  shows that the versioned dependency on snapd was bumped to >= 2.38; which is not satisfiable on powerpc because snapd is not buildable on powerpc with gccgo (vs golang).

  This affects xenial cloud image builds.

  added a depends on ubuntu-image but that package is not available on
  xenial for powerpc.  So powerpc image builds are failing. :(
