[04:26] <slangasek> acheronuk[m]: it's still a bug for autopkgtests to rely on $HOME to be set somewhere useful in the environment; nevertheless I would certainly like to know why all of a sudden, autopkgtests are running in the armhf containers as user 'systemd-coredump'.
[04:32] <slangasek> acheronuk[m]: it looks like a preponderance of the failing tests were on a node I was manually fiddling with to try to debug snapcraft failures, and the lxd profile may not have been 100% restored, sorry.  Testing a possible fix now.
[04:34] <slangasek> hmmm but here's another failure on a different node
[04:48] <slangasek>   * adt-virt-lxc: Stop hardcoding the "ubuntu" suggested normal user; instead,
[04:48] <slangasek>     call "getent passwd" to detect the first user with uid >= 500. Don't
[04:48] <slangasek>     advertise suggested-normal-user if none exists.
[04:48]  * slangasek sighs
[04:56] <slangasek> xnox: ^^ where does this systemd-coredump user come from?  it appears to be in none of the systemd maintainer scripts and is not mentioned in the changelog
[04:59] <slangasek> xnox: answer: /usr/lib/sysusers.d/systemd.conf but why and how is it picking uids?
[05:00] <slangasek> is it valid for systemd-coredump to have uid 998? yes.  Is it weird? also yes.
[05:04] <slangasek> anyway, I think I have the autopkgtest harness fixed; force-restarting
[06:20] <acheronuk> slangasek: I see. thank you
