This build also failed. The results are here:
http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=3182099
(search for "... FAIL")
So it appears that some other package on the build machine has been
updated, and it's causing most of the tests in commandtest to fail.
Unfortunately, even when debugging is turned on the tests don't say
anything about why they failed.
Any ideas?
Yep - we figured it out on IRC. Commit f0e9dfe (not present in 0.8.8)
fixed commandtest to use its own processgroup; my guess is that the
fedora build farm used to run things such that the test happened to
pass, but recently changed to where a new process group is created by
the builder, which in turn reflected to a test failure unless
commandtest is made more robust.
