After debugging for a while and eventually finding the root cause we discussed this on IRC today: <cpaelzer> danpb: BTW the test crash in 6.0 that I'm tracing (asked yesterday) is virHostdevManagerInitialize failing <cpaelzer> the test goes on with mgr set to 0x0 and that is the segfault later on <cpaelzer> virSetError was helpful as "Could not initialize HostdevManager operation failed: Failed to create state dir '/sbuild-nonexistent/.cache/libvirt/hostdevmgr'" sounds like a very testbed-specific issue that I might be able to solve when invoking the tests <danpb> hmm, seems like we're missing a mock for mkdir() <danpb> i guess we should mock virFileMakePath in this case This series got v6.0.0 building in Ubuntu, so I thought it is worth to submit it for review.
