[Zope-dev] buildout not setting exit status

[Adam GROSZER]

Hello,

Making a mistake in setup.py like this:
...
            'foo.bar [test]'
            'foo.lib',
...
(note the missing ,)

Makes buildout unhappy:

"""
Develop: '...'
error in foo.other setup command: 'extras_require' must be a dictionary whose values are strings or lists of strings containing valid project/version requirement specifiers.
While:
  Installing.
  Processing develop directory '...'.

An internal error occured due to a bug in either zc.buildout or in a
recipe being used:

AssertionError:
"""

So far not bad. I made an error I got an error.

Problem is that if this is used together with buildBOT, buildbot just
continues because buildout does not set exit status "1" on this error.
Usually creates nothing, so buildbot will miss the "bin/test".
