Subject: Strange mkdirs issue on power8
Date: Tue, 22 Nov 2022 23:48:54 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <Y31R1rTLsn2Gxuej@wildebeest.org> (raw)

Hi Will,

There is a strange update error on the power8 worker.
See https://builder.sourceware.org/buildbot/#/workers/18

The issue is this code that tries to create a working directory before
running the git update command:

        if not os.path.exists(workdir):
            os.makedirs(workdir)

The apparently os.path.exists returns false, but then os.makedirs
raises a FileExistsError.  Which doesn't really make sense.

Might there be something odd with the filesystem?

Confused,

Mark
