[Bug 2009238] Re: python-libmaas has no autopkgtests, went two release cycles completely broken

[James Page]

Bah - missed the bug - I've just uploaded a new package version with
autokpkgtests enabled to Lunar; this includes the autodep8 tests for
python and full execution of the unit test suite included with libmaas.

Title:
  python-libmaas has no autopkgtests, went two release cycles completely
  broken

Status in python-libmaas package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Committed

Bug description:
  Bug #1989118 shows that python-libmaas was not compatible with python
  3.10 and thus made it into an LTS release (and a subsequent non-LTS
  release) completely broken.

  An SRU has been prepared to update the package to the latest upstream
  version in jammy and kinetic so that it works again.

  But even in lunar, this package has no autopkgtests, which would have
  identified to the Ubuntu developers BEFORE the upgrade to python3.10
  that the package was incompatible.

  This package should be updated to include the standard sorts of
  autopkgtests to ensure compatibility with future versions of python
  (even a simple 'import' as seen in that SRU bug's test case would be
  enough); or, if this package is of so little importance that no one
  will notice it is broken for 5 months after an LTS release, it should
  be dropped from the archive.
