• Build failures on mips64el - kquickcharts

    From Norbert Preining@21:1/5 to All on Sun Jan 3 03:10:01 2021
    Dear MIPS Team,

    here at the Qt/KDE Team we see a build failure due to segfault on the
    autopkg tests of kquickcharts

    https://buildd.debian.org/status/logs.php?arch=mips64el&pkg=kquickcharts&ver=5.77.0-2

    This hasn't happened before (with 5.74) and I think also not for
    5.77.0-1 in experimental.

    Do you have any idea what might be the reason and what we can do about
    it? As last resort I will disable autopkgtest on mips64el completely.

    Thanks a lot and all the best for 2021

    Norbert

    It's difficult to tell a lot without more knowledge of the QML
    internals. It happens however that the riscv64 build fails almost the
    same way, although not with a segfault, so it might be a generic issue.
    I have tracked down that failure to the colorSource entries. In short,
    if I comment all the colorSource entries in tst_PieChart.qml, all the
    tests pass fine on both mips64el and riscv64.

    Hi Aurelien,

    thanks a lot for your investigation. I have checked the sources around colorSource, but didn't find anything suspicious. We will still continue investigating. Thanks again, pointing to colorSource at least gives us a
    hint. Much appreciated.

    All the best

    Norbert
