With bind mounts, the directories we bind mount to get recorded as
the meson source and build directories. This means meson will complain
if we later try to run meson install -C /work/build in the virtual
machine or container. If we use symlinks, the directories we symlink to
will be recorded as the meson source and build directories, which means
meson install -C /work/build will work when executed after booting the
VM or container.
I tried to do the same for debian as well but the debian package tooling
changes directory into the build directory and then does meson setup ..
which is completely broken when switching to a symlink.
Scripts used to detect files that should be in POTFILES.in, like
intltool-update -m used on https://l10n.gnome.org/module/systemd/,
falsely detect this file as containing translations. Avoid this
behavior by putting the file in POTFILES.skip.
@iainlane doesn't work on Ubuntu infrastructure anymore, and `bionic` is still ESM, but not really supported anymore either.
`noble`, which is the latest Ubuntu, probably is better for testing `systemd` in 2024, and pinging `qa-help` on IRC is the current official way to contact the team behind Ubuntu's infrastructure.
Recent lcov started complaining loudly about unknown lines in gperf

Since we drop the coverage of built files from the final report anyway,
let's do it also when capturing both initial and real coverage to avoid
this error.
If we're not debugging tests, there's no point in persisting the journal,
so let's use the volatile journal storage mode in that case to avoid doing
unnecessary work.
We don't disable journal storage alltogether since various tests check
that stuff is written to the journal.
In mkosi CI, we want persistent journals when running interactively
and runtime journals when running in CI, so let's add a credential
that allows us to configure which one to use.
Workaround for #32436.
The test may fail if the journal is vacuumed or rotated during the test is running.
Let's use the newest archive file for safety.
Unfortunately the current mkosi partitioning setup is a bit too
avant-garde for the integration tests. Both in that distributions
aren't ready for it yet (some more than others), and that software
which we depend on in the integration tests isn't ready for it yet
(e.g. libselinux does not read its configuration from /usr).
Let's switch back to a more boring partioning setup by default but
keep the fancy stuff around as a mkosi profile. This means that it
can still be used for manually testing stuff by running
"mkosi --profile particle -f qemu".
If we request a DS and the resolver offers an unsigned SOA, a new
auxiliary transaction for the DS will be rejected as a loop, and we
might not make any progress toward finding the DS we need. Let's ensure
that we at least always check the parent in this case.
Fixes: 47690634f1 ("resolved: don't request the SOA for every dns label")
