[Bug 1912792] Re: requests Testsuite: autopkgtest-pkg-python but module includes '.' and no import_name set

[Robie Basak]

Hello Dan, or anyone else affected,

Accepted python-oslo.vmware into bionic-proposed. The package will build
now and be available at https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/python-
oslo.vmware/2.26.0-0ubuntu2 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, what testing has been
performed on the package 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.

Bug description:
  [impact]

  the (trivial) autopkgtest for this package always fails, since some
  change in upstream autodep8, dctrl-tools, or autopkgtest code that has
  changed the import module name used.

  The problem is the autodep8-generated test used to correctly calculate
  the module name to import as "oslo_versionedobjects", but now
  incorrectly calculates it as "oslo.versionedobjects". This is likely
  due to the autodep8 test generation script changing all '-' chars to
  '_', but not '.' to '_'. With python2, this package created a (dummy)
  binary package named python-oslo-versionedobjects, while with python3
  it provides only python3-oslo.versionedobjects.

  [test case]

  check the autopkgtests, e.g.:
  https://objectstorage.prodstack4-5.canonical.com/v1/AUTH_77e2ada1e7a84929a74ba3b87153c0ac/autopkgtest-bionic/bionic/amd64/p/python-oslo.versionedobjects/20210113_184523_626c0@/log.gz

  [regression potential]

  any regression would almost certainly be limited to failing to run the
  autodep8 test, or an incorrect pass or incorrect fail of the autodep8
  test.

  [scope]

  This was detected and fixed starting in cosmic with this version:
  http://launchpadlibrarian.net/375048921/python-oslo.versionedobjects_1.33.1-0ubuntu1_1.33.1-0ubuntu2.diff.gz

  This fix was not backported to bionic or earlier.

  [other info]

  as this is a trivial autopkgtest fix, I'll add block-proposed-bionic,
  and really this bug probably doesn't even need a fix uploaded, as this
  package's tests haven't been run for bionic in 2 years, so it should
  be enough to just point to this bug as explanation for why to ignore
  this package's failing autopkgtests on bionic.

  I specifically opened this bug due to reverse-depends autopkgtest
  failure of this package in bionic, as a result of updating python-
  oslo.messaging package for bug 1789177.
