Bug Description

the script alsa-info in checkbox is currenty version 0.4.60. the latest version is 0.4.61. This version is automatically downloaded when the script is run:

bladernr@mynock:/usr/share/checkbox/scripts$ ./alsa_info
ALSA Information Script v 0.4.60
--------------------------------

This script visits the following commands/files to collect diagnostic
information about your ALSA installation and sound related hardware.

  dmesg
  lspci
  lsmod
  aplay
  amixer
  alsactl
  /proc/asound/
  /sys/class/sound/
  ~/.asoundrc (etc.)

See './alsa_info --help' for command line options.

cat: /sys/module/snd_soc_tegra_alc5632/parameters/*: No such file or directory
Newer version detected: 0.4.61

ALSA-Info script has been downloaded /tmp/alsa-info.S36efoTtxY.
Please, re-run it from new location.

because of this, the test never runs. I believe this could be the cause behind not seeing alsa-info data in certification runs.

Looking further this seems to not be affecting the test... at last not that I can tell manually. Running the command string from the job description seems to still work.

We can certainly update the script if it will help things, but if we're seeing this not being run we may want to investigate the cause. Maybe it's not in the whitelist you're using? the alsa_info_collect job has no dependencies or requirements, and alsa_info_attachment only depends on alsa_info_collect, so the job definitions themselves appear to be OK.

Yeah, now that I think further on it, I'm not sure what is going on here...

running the script manually triggers a download, however, using the options that the job description uses in the command string neatly avoids the download of the latest version. It probably wouldn't hurt to update though...

So tell you what. For this bug, I'll update the script and call it done. I'll open a new one the next time I see test results that don't have this test run, or dont have the info. Then we can look at the individual machine and see what's going on there... because it's not occurring all the time.
