Since August 2020, GitLab Continuous Integration test jobs have been
failing on the CentOS 7 image like this from
tests/test_SupportedFileSystems.log:
process 6319: D-Bus library appears to be incorrectly set up; failed to read machine uuid: UUID file '/etc/machine-id' should contain a hex string of length 32, not length 0, with no other text
See the manual page for dbus-uuidgen to correct this issue.

Not sure why this has just started failing in the CentOS 7 CI image now,
but the error is widely known [1][2][3][4]. Use
systemd-machine-id-setup to generate a machine ID [5][6]; rather than
dbus-uuidgen [7] as it's designed to integrate into VMs and does the
right thing if a valid machine ID already exists.

These PipeCapture unit tests are also failing, preventing the
ubuntu_test CI job passing:

These tests are also failing locally in both Ubuntu 20.04 LTS and
Fedora 32 VMs, but not in Ubuntu 18.04 LTS or Fedora 31 VMs. As this is
not specifically a Ubuntu docker image update related issue, temporarily
exclude these failing tests.

The Ubuntu based GitLab CI jobs have recently started being terminated
after the default 1 hour timeout. Installing / updating packages in the
image is updating the tzdata package which is prompting for input which
it will never receive, hence the hang. The end of output from the job
looks like this:

This is a well known issue [1][2][3]. Probably occurring now because of
a new release of tzdata not included in the base Ubuntu image we are

This previous commit [1] excluded unit test
BlockSpecialTest.NamedBlockSpecialObjectBySymlinkMatches because GNOME
GitLab Docker CI images don't have /dev/disk hierarchy and so no
symbolic links to block devices.

use in the new tests/makedev.sh script.

All the test_SupportedFileSystems unit tests which need a loop device
are failing when running losetup like this:
losetup: <IMAGE_NAME>: failed to setup loop device: No such file or directory
losetup uses /dev/loop-control [1][2] which no longer exists in the
Docker image. However even after creating /dev/loop-control in the
image, losetup continues to fail. Also tried stracing losetup but that
fails like this, presumably because it is not allowed inside the Docker
image:
$ strace losetup --find --show /tmp/disk.img
strace: ptrace(PTRACE_TRACEME, ...): Operation not permitted
+++ exited with 1 +++
For now I have run out of ways to investigate and resolve this, so just
exclude the 12 tests which required loop devices. All the tests still
execute when run locally outside the restricted GNOME GitLab CI Docker
setup.

See how the test_BlockSpecial fixtures are getting major=0 and minor=0
for the block special devices they are testing with. This is happening
because there aren't any entries in /dev for those disks and partitions
listed in /proc/partitions. Assume that Docker in GNOME GitLab has
changed and that unneeded and unwanted devices in /dev are no longer
being created inside images.
In the test CI jobs execute new script, tests/makedev.sh, to create just
the first two block special devices mentioned in /proc/partitions needed
by test_BlockSpecial.

So the test program is aborting when trying to print the failed to

This doesn't affect the CentOS GitLab CI image because that installs the
kmod package with modprobe by default, however the Ubuntu image doesn't
have the kmod package.
Fix this by explicitly installing the kmod package into both the CentOS
and Ubuntu GitLab CI images.
Closes!49 - Add file system interface tests
Extend testing to all fully supported file systems, those with an
implemented FileSystem derived class.
Note that in main() GParted threading needs to now be initialised before
InitGoogleTest() because it calls INSTANTIATE_TEST_CASE_P() which in
turn calls get_supported_fstypes() which eventually constructs all the
individual file system interface objects and discovers available
support, some of which use execute_command(). Example call chain:
InitGoogleTest()
INSTANTIATE_TEST_CASE_P()
get_supported_fstypes()
setup_supported_filesystems()
{SupportedFileSystems}->find_supported_filesystems()
{btrfs}->get_filesystem_support()

(test_ext2:6338): Gtk-WARNING **: 09:06:17.576: cannot open display:
Running main() from test_ext2.cc
Obviously the GitLab CI environment doesn't have an X11 display, but
unfortunately this test case code requires one.
Utils::execute_command() calls Gtk::Main::run() so requires a Gtk::Main
object constructing and therefore an X11 display, even though this
program never displays anything graphical. The call chain is:
main() test_ext2.cc
Gtk::Main::Main() gtkmm/gtk/src/main.ccg
Gtk::Main::init() [1]
gtk_init() gtk/gtk/gtkmain.c [2]
which exits with a non-zero exit status when the DISPLAY environment
variable is unset.
Looked at deriving from Gtk::Main class and writing a replacement init()
method which calls gtk_init_check() instead of gtk_init() but
Gtk::Main::instance_ is a private member so not accessible in a derived
class.
Tried using Glib::MainLoop instead of Gtk::Main, but that doesn't
initialise everything that Gtk::Main(), so the program crashes.
Therefore use xvfb-run [3][4] to run this test program against a virtual
X11 display when a real display isn't available. Coded execution of
xvfb-run into this test program so that it can simply be executed on the
command line like the other test programs, without having to remember to
run "xvfb-run ./test_ext2 ...".

[4] Using GTK without DISPLAY
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/11694278/using-gtk-without-displayCloses!49 - Add file system interface tests
This is the first step of adding testing of the derived FileSystem
interface classes which call the file system specific executables.
Rather than mocking command execution and returned output the tests run
the real commands, effectively making this integration testing.
Test case setup determines the file system supported actions using
get_filesystem_support() and individual tests are skipped if a feature
is not supported, just as GParted does for it's actions.
Each test creates it's own sparse image file and a fresh file system,
performs a test on one FileSystem interface call and deletes the image
file. This makes each test independent and allows them to run as a
non-root user, provided the file system command itself doesn't require
root. Errors reported for a failed interface call will include the
GParted OperationDetails, which in turn includes the file system
specific command used and stdout and stderr from it's execution.
For example, temporarily breaking the test code to create a 10 KiB image
file instead of 256 MiB one produces this:
$ ./test_ext2

$ echo $?
1
Also as Utils:: and FileSystem::execute_command() are needed, this
requires linking with GParted_Core for GParted_Core::mainthread and
therefore with most of the non-UI classes in gpartedbin.

When GParted GitLab Continuous Integration was setup, CentOS 7 image was
used for a slow moving distribution and Ubuntu as a different, faster
moving distribution.
CentOS 8 has recently been released [1]. To avoid automatically
switching to it when an official CentOS 8 docker image is made available
[2], explicitly specify the CentOS 7 image.

GNOME 3's yelp doesn't use scrollkeeper or the OMF catalog, so the
constructed Makefile doesn't use xmllint to validate the scrollkeeper
DTD file. Therefore remove attempted sed edit of that line which no
longer exists in the Makefile.
Note that help/Makefile.am's @YELP_HELP_RULES@ automake macro expansion
comes from /usr/share/aclocal/yelp.m4 [1].

It fails when the scrollkeeper.sourceforge.net site reports that
SourceForge is undergoing maintenance or is temporarily unavailable. I
have seen this occur on 3 separate occasions in the last 4 weeks since I
started experimenting with GitLab CI, which is rather too often.
Xmllint comes from the GNOME 2 gnome-doc-utils.make rules used to build
and validate GNOME 2 documentation.
Fragment of useful Debian bug report 730688:
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=730688
--disable-scrollkeeper requieres scrollkeeper installed
"You can reproduce the problem in mdbtoools version 0.7.1-1 with no
network, and rarian-compat not installed.
When the network is available, buildd downloads the DTD for checks.
When there is no network, gnome-doc-utils fails.
"
Fix by:
(1) adding the rarian-compat package to the CI Docker images, which
provides a local copy of the scrollkeeper-omf.dtd file;
(2) adding the xmllint --nonet option to prevent fetching of DTDs
remotely.
With reference to earlier commit:
0eb9f1fcfb
Reduce dependency on scrollkeeper (#743318)
That commit allowed GParted to be installed on GNOME 3 desktops without
requiring rarian-compat package to be installed. This commit adds
rarian-compat to the CI images so that 'make check' can succeed without
accessing the Internet. Just the intricate path to continue to build
and test a GNOME 2 application in a world of GNOME 3 desktops with
beginning to be reduced backward compatibility.
Closes#9 - CI test jobs occasionally fail with xmllint not loading

Unfortunately parallelising 'make distcheck' causes it to fail like
this:

Therefore go back to serial 'make distcheck'.
Closes!6 - Reduce the time taken by the GitLab CI jobs
Reduce the time taken by the GitLab Continuous Integration jobs by
parallelising make to use all available CPUs in the Docker CI image
when it is building GParted code. This includes 'make diskcheck'
because that also does a second build of the GParted code in a separate
subdirectory.
Closes!6 - Reduce the time taken by the GitLab CI jobs
Prepare the GitLab Continuous Integration configuration for also
building and testing GParted on a Ubuntu image. The definition of the
image and before_script, which so far specify the CentOS Docker image
and how to install the required RPM packages, need to move from being
top level nodes to being defined per job. Namely within jobs
'centos_build' and 'centos_test'.
To avoid duplicating various nodes within multiple jobs, YAML anchors
(&LABEL) and references (*LABEL) are used. They are defined in ignored
jobs, job names starting with a dot (.).
Closes!4 - Add GitLab CI jobs to build and test GParted

So the code is trying to find a symbolic link to a block device to use
in the test. It is trying to read the directory /dev/disk/by-id to find
a symbolic link, but the directory doesn't exist in the Docker CI image.
The used directory was recently changed [1] to use one which existed on
all distributions. Docker images don't even have the /dev/disk
directory. Exclude just this specific test.

Closes!4 - Add GitLab CI jobs to build and test GParted
Recursively list all the files below /dev as part of the 'test' job as
certain block device names are needed by the failing test_BlockSpecial
unit test.
The artifact captures all the files from the directory in which the CI
script runs to build and test GParted. It creates a ZIP file which can
be downloaded after the job finishes, whether the job succeeds of fails.
This is to capture logs from the failure of the test_BlockSpecial unit
test.
Closes!4 - Add GitLab CI jobs to build and test GParted
Add GitLab Continuous Integration job named 'test' which runs the
GParted unit tests and distcheck. Note that the job starts from a fresh
official CentOS Docker image so also has to rebuild GParted too.
So far this job fails on unit test test_BlockSpecial. Fragment of the
