Comment (by bruno):
There is no upstream. I needed to make one so that I would have a
reasonable test before putting a development version of squashfs-tools in
rawhide. (Kyle asked me not to break things :-) I'll take a look at doing
the upload and if I think it is as simple as it looks at first glance I'll
do it shortly.
This is mostly crit path. squashfs-tools is used in live images. If
uncompressing doesn't work then the images won't work. Arguably only gzip
needs to work now, but hopefully we'll also need xz for F15. Also the
unsquashfs path isn't used by live images, so in theory that could be
skipped as well. But it seemed convenient to test these together. If it
runs too long, the test data size could be cut back and the test would
probably be as good. In my tests it runs reasonably quick on an older
machine.
In theory there could be other core tests to make sure extended attributes
and special files work correctly. But those features aren't really used by
live images currently.
A more complete test, would be to test live images, but there could be
other things blocking a live image test and they would take longer to do.
I can add a good results example. The only bad results I saw were when I
had bugs in my test script.
