Hi,

Your package fails to build randomly on amd64: In the exact same
environment, sometimes it builds fine, and sometimes it fails.

Relevant part (hopefully):
The full build log is available from:
http://qa-logs.debian.net/2025/04/28/ovn_25.03.0-1_unstable.log

You can find other build logs (including successful ones) in:
http://qa-logs.debian.net/2025/04/28/

All bugs filed during this archive rebuild are listed at:

If you reassign this bug to another package, please mark it as 'affects'-ing

If you fail to reproduce this, please provide a build log and diff it with mine
so that we can identify if something relevant changed in the meantime.

Hi there!

I'm trying to solve this Debian bug:
https://bugs.debian.org/1104378

To me, it looks like a missing dependency somewhere in a Makefile.am,
but I couldn't figure out how to fix, especially because it happens
randomly.

Could someone help me for this?

Cheers,

Thomas Goirand (zigo)

P.S: Please keep me and the Debian bug as CC to this thread, as I'm not

in parallel because both the library and the test utility directly depend
on the object file:
https://github.com/ovn-org/ovn-vif/blob/0e289d0f3d92662abb409e7b4ead126f8af401dc/tests/automake.mk#L76C11-L76C38

I'd suggest to try and make the test depend on the library (lib/libovn-vif.la)
and not the object file directly.

Hi Lucas,

I've hopefully uploaded a fix to Unstable with ovn 26.03.0-6. Could you
try again to trigger it, maybe building OVN multiple times?

Cheers,

Thomas Goirand (zigo)
