[Bug 1317055] Re: --shell does not launch, upon needs-building build failure

[Launchpad Bug Tracker]

This bug was fixed in the package autopkgtest - 2.16.2

---------------
autopkgtest (2.16.2) unstable; urgency=medium


  * Support ":native" dependencies.
  * Add LXC runner test case for running as different user.
  * Add QEMU runner test case for performance and integrity of copying (1000
    files with 100 kB each).
  * copyup/down: Clean up cp process on timeout, to fix eternal hang.
  * adt-virt-qemu: Disable shared downtmp. For bigger source trees 9p in
    current QEMU is way too slow (in the magnitude of 2 MB/s, and max'ing out
    CPU usage), so we can't use it directly as a normal file system.
  * Revert "Don't extract/build source packages in shared downtmp", due to
    above change. This stops penalizing other runners with extra source tree
    copies.
  * VirtSubproc: Clean up auxverb processes on timeout.
  * adt-run: Stop testbed on TERM and QUIT signals, to avoid leaving stale
    schroot/qemu/LXC processes around when e. g. stopping a job from Jenkins.
  * adt-virt-qemu: Fix runcmd to make the command's stdin actually look and
    behave like a pipe, instead of reading directly from the "stdin" file. The
    latter leads to commands exiting prematurely when hitting the file's EOF.
    (LP: #1317358)
  * Convert one of the QEMU tests from source tree to dsc, to cover that case
    as well.
  * Add test case for QEMU with --apt-source (using libpng).
  * adt-virt-qemu: Create eofcat in /bin instead of the shared /autopkgtest
    mount, as running it from the latter again triggers the "invalid numerical
    value" bug with 9p from older QEMU versions.
  * adt-buildvm-ubuntu-cloud: Purge some unnecessary services to speed up boot
    time a bit.
  * @builddeps@ now includes build-essential, not just make. (LP: #1317357)
  * Make -s/--shell-fail start a shell on failed builds as well.
    (LP: #1317055)

  --shell does not launch, upon needs-building build failure, thus there
  is no way to investigate why did a package build fail under adt, but
  doesn't else where.
