CI: enable new packaging tests using apkg (!1341) · Merge requests · Knot projects / Knot Resolver · GitLab

GitLab now enforces expiry dates on tokens that originally had no set expiration date. Those tokens were given an expiration date of one year later. Please review your personal access tokens, project access tokens, and group access tokens to ensure you are aware of upcoming expirations. Administrators of GitLab can find more information on how to identify and mitigate interruption in our documentation.

Self sign-up has been disabled due to increased spam activity. If you want to get access, please send an email to a project owner (preferred) or at gitlab(at)nic(dot)cz. We apologize for the inconvenience.

Jakub Ružička requested to merge pkgtest into manager Aug 29, 2022

In order to solve #612 (closed):

remove tests/packaging based on docker/py.test and ever-present .packaging - a total of 178 files / 1600 lines that achieved very little in an extremely redundant way
remove distro/packaging based on vagrant/ansible (65 files / 800 lines)
remove pkgtest using OBS from .gitlab.yml
replace all above with a pkg stage using apkg

For each supported distro, build and install packages and run packaging tests:

apkg install --build-dep
apkg test --test-dep

This is using new apkg LXC images based on lxc-gitlab-runner.

TODO

prepare apkg LXC images for all currently supported distros
enable correct Knot DNS/build deps repos (probably script using python-distro which is already required by apkg)
