The tests run successfully now. Unfortunately, they're all simply skipped if you don't have the python-cryptography package installed.

I think it might be good to add this dependency to the checkdepends array.

Yeah, I know. I currently am not motivated to analyze why the tests fail. I build with --nocheck myself; the resulting binary still does what it should do.

If you or someone else wants to investigate & provide a fix, I'd really appreciate it.

Edit: I've found the issue[1] over on Github & have added more information. This doesn't seem to be a packaging issue per se, rather the official instructions how to run the tests might be wrong — or the test server start code might be buggy. Let's see how the issue shakes out.

Hello I have problems to pass the tests the python start_server.py script does not work.

On the logs I only get timeout.

Hello,

The latest version, 2.8, does not compiles in a clean chroot due to it missing python. Please add it to the depends array.

Thank you.

hi,

I've just built osslsigncode and realized that using a proxy to download the sources interferes with the tests carried out at the end of the build.

adding unset http_proxy at the start of prepare() function avoids interference.

regards, lacsaP.

The tests work just fine for me at the moment.

With the upload of 2.7-1 I also fixed the issue of having that server_http.py process lying around after the tests. It's due to a bug in upstream that I reported here[1] and that's been fixed since. I apply a similar fix within the PKGBUILD until the next release comes out.

If tests other than the "stop_server" one are failing, I cannot really help you with those. They work fine on my end. Maybe try building from the git master (it's dead simple) & report resulting test failure issues upstream. Also look at the log file the tests produce ("Testing/Temporary/LastTest.log" in the build directory) for possible reasons.

As mbunkus pointed out on 2023-11-10, I'm seeing CTest failures in 2.7-1. Tests 108-147, 153-157 fail.

You'll have to file an issue with the upstream. I only execute the totally normal ctest Release command during the check phase. If that one leaves processes around, it's a bug in their cmake setup, I think.

I've discovered this in my processlist after yay -S osslsigncode:
