compile auto test failure, and root-unittest failure, is extremely noisy

[Dan Streetman]

[impact]

failure in the compile-time tests (also run from the root-unittest autopkgtest) prints out the entire meson testlog.txt, which shows the output of all tests, including passed ones, not just the failed test output. This makes it extremely difficult to find the output of the failed test(s) and creates a massive log to download.

[test case]

see any failed build, e.g.
https://launchpadlibrarian.net/471257226/buildlog_ubuntu-eoan-amd64.systemd_245.218-g69d06b7acf+19.10.20200328163536_BUILDING.txt.gz

[regression potential]

any regression would likely occur during test failure, likely resulting in lack of details of the test failure; or, a regression caused by the additional meson parameter could cause build failure.

[scope]

Xenial does not use meson, so can not be adjusted. This is needed in Bionic and later.

Hello Dan, or anyone else affected,

Accepted systemd into eoan-proposed. The package will build now and be available at https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/systemd/242-7ubuntu3.8 in a few hours, and then in the -proposed repository.

Please help us by testing this new package. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation on how to enable and use -proposed. Your feedback will aid us getting this update out to other Ubuntu users.

If this package fixes the bug for you, please add a comment to this bug, mentioning the version of the package you tested, what testing has been performed on the package and change the tag from verification-needed-eoan to verification-done-eoan. If it does not fix the bug for you, please add a comment stating that, and change the tag to verification-failed-eoan. In either case, without details of your testing we will not be able to proceed.

Further information regarding the verification process can be found at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/PerformingSRUVerification . Thank you in advance for helping!

N.B. The updated package will be released to -updates after the bug(s) fixed by this package have been verified and the package has been in -proposed for a minimum of 7 days.
