The build fails because the electrum package is not available in the latest APT snapshot.

Yep, as said yesterday, we’ll need to cherry-pick FTBFS fixes from devel until the branch builds.

@segfault, I’ll give it a try today and we’ll see where this goes.

OK, it builds. The diff between the .packages from a stable build done today and a build from this branch looks OK, nothing scary, and some welcome fixes. So I think we should do that in 3.14. Waiting for CI results.

#10 Updated by intrigeri 2019-04-28 07:23:17

Stretch 9.9 is out so we could now drop commit:37802dee1f8aefa4535c624a8c583bf42a4fdb50 from this branch.

#11 Updated by intrigeri 2019-04-28 07:40:07

Across 3 local full test suite runs I’ve seen all scenarios pass except the OpenPGP applet ones (expected since we disabled topIcons for now).

[x] checked the git diff
[x] checked from the package list on Jenkins that Electrum 3.2.3-1 is listed
[] Electrum Bitcoin client ǂ Using a persistent Electrum configuration failed since build 2.

Maybe this test failure is acceptable, as electrum is currently not in a good shape at all.

I didn’t spin up this iso on a VM.

Thanks @hefee for the review!

tl;dr: not a regression brought by this branch.

Electrum in Tails can rarely connect to the network (Bug #16421) which makes this test case fail most of the time, be it on stable-based branches or on this one. To fix that, we’ll need a version of Electrum that’s not in Debian yet, hence the conversation we had at the sprint last month, that’s been going on on tails\@dev since.
