closed[qe-core] test fails in validate_blockdevices
100%
Description
Observation¶
Migrated from https://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1224140; this is identified as being a test issue (even though it 'reliably' was giving different results before.
according to man lsblk, most important for mountpoint is:
The relationship between block devices and filesystems is not always one-to-one. The filesystem may use more block devices,
or the same filesystem may be accessible by more paths. This is the reason why lsblk provides MOUNTPOINT and MOUNTPOINTS
(pl.) columns. The column MOUNTPOINT displays only one mount point (usually the last mounted instance of the filesystem), and
the column MOUNTPOINTS displays by multi-line cell all mount points associated with the device.
'mountpoint' 'usually lists the last mounted path' - making '/' rather surprising to ever have worked

Test suite description¶
Reproducible¶
Fails since (at least) Build 20240510
Expected result¶
Last good: 20240509 (or more recent)
Further details¶
Always latest result in this scenario: latest
Updated by dimstar 2 months ago
The test code tries to identify if it should use 'mountpoint' or 'mountpoints' already (is_lsblk_able_to_display_mountpoints)
This uses 'lsblk --help | grep MOUNTPOINTS' to check on that. For util-linux 2.40, the help output has been reworked and the test does no longer recognizes this as valid
