This is really weird bug. After I've disabled failing tests in bzr tests pass but then emerge process hangs after: >>> Completed installing bzr-1.10-r1 into /vt/portage/tmp/portage/dev-util/bzr-1.10-r1/image/ hang... 100% cpu load.
Created attachment 175862 [details] bzr-1.10-r1.ebuild to reproduce the problem run FEATURES=test emerge -v bzr I've tried to reduce number tests but failed: at some point I've reduced to 4 tests branches (by branches I mean blackbox.*, )test_http.* and so on - tests having same beginning in their name) but then after I've tried to reduce to two, emerge passes. When I back to 4 tests it stopped to hang too but when I back to all tests it hangs.
And forgot to note. To avoid tests failures you need net-misc/curl-7.18.2 and dev-python/pycurl-7.16.4... I have not checked if I disabled all tests for newer versions of this libraries.
Created attachment 175901 [details, diff] remove unnecessary regex patterns that cause problems The test suite uses \r to rewrite the same line thousands of times and this triggers a performance issue in the regex patterns that are used to search the build log for QA issues.
Thank you very much Zac. It works.
This is fixed in 2.1.6.2 and 2.2_rc18.
