Starting with 5.51.0 (the tarballs available for packagers) plasma-plasmoidpackagetest fails. I bisected it and it appears b42973d964df159119467030689f36cc005715b5 "Emit signals when a package is installed/uninstalled" is the commit which broke the test. It also fails on build.kde.org with a different message due to ASAN: https://build.kde.org/job/Frameworks/job/kpackage/job/kf5-qt5%20SUSEQt5.10/78/consoleFull STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. cmake && ninja && ninja test SOFTWARE VERSIONS (available in About System) KDE Plasma Version: 5.14.0 KDE Frameworks Version: 5.51.0 Qt Version: 5.11.2 Output of the failing test: 3: Test command: /var/tmp/paludis/build/kde-frameworks-kpackage-5.50.0/work/build/bin/plasmoidpackagetest 3: Test timeout computed to be: 10000000 3: ********* Start testing of PlasmoidPackageTest ********* 3: Config: Using QtTest library 5.11.2, Qt 5.11.2 (x86_64-little_endian-lp64 shared (dynamic) release build; by GCC 8.2.0) 3: PASS : PlasmoidPackageTest::initTestCase() 3: PASS : PlasmoidPackageTest::createAndInstallPackage() 3: PASS : PlasmoidPackageTest::createAndUpdatePackage() 3: QWARN : PlasmoidPackageTest::uncompressPackageWithSubFolder() kf5.kcoreaddons.desktopparser: Unable to find service type for serv ice "SimpleContent" listed in "/var/tmp/paludis/build/kde-frameworks-kpackage-5.50.0/temp/plasmoidpackagetest-DUHvvC/customcontent//m etadata.desktop" 3: QWARN : PlasmoidPackageTest::uncompressPackageWithSubFolder() kf5.kcoreaddons.desktopparser: Unable to find service type for serv ice "CustomContent" listed in "/var/tmp/paludis/build/kde-frameworks-kpackage-5.50.0/temp/plasmoidpackagetest-DUHvvC/customcontent//m etadata.desktop" 3: QWARN : PlasmoidPackageTest::uncompressPackageWithSubFolder() kf5.kcoreaddons.desktopparser: Unable to find service type for serv ice "SimpleContent" listed in "/var/tmp/paludis/build/kde-frameworks-kpackage-5.50.0/temp/plasmoidpackagetest-DUHvvC/customcontent/me tadata.desktop" 3: QWARN : PlasmoidPackageTest::uncompressPackageWithSubFolder() kf5.kcoreaddons.desktopparser: Unable to find service type for serv ice "CustomContent" listed in "/var/tmp/paludis/build/kde-frameworks-kpackage-5.50.0/temp/plasmoidpackagetest-DUHvvC/customcontent/me tadata.desktop" 3: PASS : PlasmoidPackageTest::uncompressPackageWithSubFolder() 3: QWARN : PlasmoidPackageTest::isValid() Empty filename passed to function 3: QWARN : PlasmoidPackageTest::isValid() kf5.kpackage: No metadata file in the package, expected it at: "/var/tmp/paludis/build/kde -frameworks-kpackage-5.50.0/temp/.qttest/share/packageRoot/Package/" 3: PASS : PlasmoidPackageTest::isValid() 3: PASS : PlasmoidPackageTest::filePath() 3: PASS : PlasmoidPackageTest::entryList() 3: QFATAL : PlasmoidPackageTest::noCrashOnAsyncInstall() Received signal 11 3: Function time: 42ms Total time: 321ms 3: FAIL! : PlasmoidPackageTest::noCrashOnAsyncInstall() Received a fatal error. 3: Loc: [Unknown file(0)] 3: Totals: 7 passed, 1 failed, 0 skipped, 0 blacklisted, 321ms 3: ********* Finished testing of PlasmoidPackageTest ********* 3/11 Test #3: plasma-plasmoidpackagetest ..........***Exception: Child aborted 0.72 sec
