[Bug 837324] Re: aborts rather than printing warning when configuration file is inaccessible

[Launchpad Bug Tracker]

This bug was fixed in the package bzr - 2.4.0-3ubuntu1

---------------
bzr (2.4.0-3ubuntu1) oneiric; urgency=low

  * Merge from Debian.  Remaining changes:
   + Drop build dependencies on python-{subunit,meliae,lzma,medusa}, which are
     not in main.
   + Disable support for running selftest in parallel (requires subunit).

bzr (2.4.0-3) unstable; urgency=medium

  * Fix regression in open_write_stream, which breaks the bzr-builddeb
    testsuite. Closes: #638219, LP: #831351

bzr (2.4.0-2) unstable; urgency=medium

  * Ignore permission denied errors when opening configuration files.
    LP: #837324, Closes: #639004

bzr (2.4.0-1) unstable; urgency=low

  * New upstream release.
   + Suggest python-gpgme python-gpgme-dbg for new signatures features.
   + Build-conflict with python-gpgme for the moment because of
     failing GPG tests when it is installed.

Title:
  aborts rather than printing warning when configuration file is
  inaccessible

Status in Bazaar Version Control System:
  In Progress
Status in “bzr” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  when opening a configuration file raises PermissionDenied, bzr prints
  it (with a backtrace) and aborts.

  Instead, it should just ignore the configuration file, print a warning
  and continue.

  This is causing also causing problems when running the tests under
  fakeroot. When we create a safety net, the users' configuration file
  is read. If this configuration file is e.g. in /root the tests blow up
  spectacularly.
