Issue 14120: ARM Ubuntu 3.x buildbot failing test_dbm (original) (raw)

The ARM Ubuntu 3.x buildbot often fails test_dbm:

The stdio logs also show possibly-related output on stderr:

test test_dbm failed
@test_27319_tmp.db: unable to flush: No such file or directory
@test_27319_tmp.db: unable to flush: No such file or directory

This is printed before the error tracebacks, but I assume it actually happens afterwards (which is entirely possible if stderr is line-buffered and stdout is not).
