Bug Description
[Impact]
* libvirt became FTBFS in xenial due to other changes. Most likely a
newer deboostrap that was used.
* The fix just modifies the self-tests (not the active code that runs in
an ubuntu users env)
* The change is already active in Ubuntu in later releases via https:/
https:/
https:/
[Test Case]
* Build libvirt in Xenial on LP infra and while doing so do not trigger
test fails in test-openpty and test-posix_openpt
[Regression Potential]
* Since we only change self-test code that runs at build time the runtime
should show now
regressions. The one thing I can think of is that a rebuild could
always change something
(even a no change rebuild) but since we want to bundle it with other
SRUs there would be a
rebuild anyway - hence I'd think this has no regression risk of its
own.
[Other Info]
* This should not be fixed standalone but bundled with some other SRU to avoid useless rebuilds
- and even more so - users downloading updates for now gain.
---
Due to a unknown other update libvirt became an FTBFS in Xenial.
The issue shows up at build on launchpad infra and has two seld-tests broken.
From the build log:
FAIL: test-openpty
==================
openpty returned -1
FAIL test-openpty (exit status: 1)
FAIL: test-posix_openpt
=======
../../.
FAIL test-posix_openpt (exit status: 134)
This is somewhat familiar to bug 1641615 but showing up again in Xenial now for yet unknown reasons.
The later re-occurrence of this outside of Xenial was later on fixed by [1] for good.
Probably now triggering by some SRu of a lib into Xenial (or unlikely some change in the builder setup).
We want to add that to Xenial as well to have it build fine again.

The fix does apply but not work as-is:
../../.
../../.
if (errno != ENENT) {
../../.
Diving into sbuild env to check what we could do ...
