Why macOS tests take so long

Open AZero13 opened this issue 1 year ago • 5 comments

The issue is not cups in itself, but macOS macOS has cups running in the background, owned by the root user. This process immediately respawns even when one force-quits the process.

As a result, lpstat's "Waiting for jobs to finish" ALWAYS reports 1 job running, and this goes until the timeout happens

There needs to be a workaround for this when running the tests for macOS.

No, it is using the wrong domain socket. Investigating...

CUPS or lstat? what is using the wrong socket?

Hmm, I can no longer reproduce this issue but there have been a bunch of fixes in the last year...

Looks like things started working after my CUPS-Create-Local-Printer fixes in 9383b37...
