Missing smb dep8 tests

[Joshua Powers]

The backuppc package support several transport mechanisms for fetching the data to backup.

This bug is about adding a DEP8 test for the smb (samba/windows) mechanism.

[Brian Murray (brian-murray)]

I don't think this whole bug should be closed if the tests added are just for smb.

These tests should be committed to Disco Dingo before they can be SRUed right?

[Andreas Hasenack (ahasenack)]

I was told that this wasn't necessary, since they do not run on the user's premises and they are not the driver for the SRU. They were added to help regression-test the bug.

Of course I'll add them to disco whenever that opens, though. I have a big list of pending things for disco.

> I don't think this whole bug should be closed if the tests added are just for smb.

I agree to keep a bug open for non-smb tests, but that doesn't necessarily have to be _this_ bug. It could be confusing to track the status of smb tests if this bug also gets used for non-smb tests, so how about Andreas creates a new bug for non-smb tests to keep that request alive, and this bug is renamed for smb tests only?

[Brian Murray (brian-murray)]

Renaming this bug and making a new one for more dep8 tests makes sense to me.

[Andreas Hasenack (ahasenack)]

Thanks. I created https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/backuppc/+bug/1802943 for the other mechanisms.

The fix for this bug has been awaiting testing feedback in the -proposed repository for trusty for more than 90 days. Please test this fix and update the bug appropriately with the results. In the event that the fix for this bug is still not verified 15 days from now, the package will be removed from the -proposed repository.

[Andreas Hasenack (ahasenack)]

I'll go through this in the next few days.
