[Bug 1782786] Re: [SRU] work-around for test_hacking failures with new versions of python

[Brian Murray]

Hello Corey, or anyone else affected,

Accepted nova into bionic-proposed. The package will build now and be
available at https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nova/2:17.0.9-0ubuntu2
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-bionic to verification-done-bionic. If it does not
fix the bug for you, please add a comment stating that, and change the
tag to verification-failed-bionic. 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: nova (Ubuntu Bionic)
       Status: Triaged => Fix Committed

** Tags added: verification-needed verification-needed-bionic

Bug description:
  This bug is tracking an SRU for the work-around fix for
  https://bugs.launchpad.net/cloud-archive/+bug/1804062.

  [Impact]
  test_hacking fails with new versions of python 2.7, 3.6, and 3.7. See https://bugs.launchpad.net/cloud-archive/+bug/1804062 for more details.

  [Test Case]
  Build the nova package and it will run unit tests. With the work-around, test_hacking is skipped, and tests will be successful.

  [Regression Potential]
  Very low. test_hacking will be skipped which decreases testing coverage. This is a temporary fix until an official fix lands for https://bugs.launchpad.net/cloud-archive/+bug/1804062.
