hydra builds report wrong status?

hydra builds report wrong status?

[Hartmut Goebel]

Hi,

I try debugging the python-build-system branch and found working with
hydra's failure list being complicated. Beside of quiet some usability
issues, I discovered a major issue:

The list contains wrong entries!

E.g. https://hydra.gnu.org/build/1638256 failed ("returned a non-zero
exit code"), but when looking at the log-file
<https://hydra.gnu.org/build/1638256/log/tail-reload> I can spot no error.

If this happens on our main build system, we may have major issues :-(

Any clue what's going on there?

This is a case where there was a transient SSH error, presumably, just
after the build completed (successfully).  It’s a mixture of bad lsh
behavior and maybe a bug in the old lsh-based ‘guix offload’.

I’ve restarted this particular build, so it’ll turn green soon.

Thanks,
