PR #1169 (python:3.14.6-slim -> python:3.15.0b3-slim) ran for 6h before
GitHub's max job limit killed it, then did it again on re-run. Two
independent defects.
Dependabot proposed a beta at all: the config already excluded python
from the docker digest group for dependabot-core#9496, but the comment
claimed ungrouped python updates get their pre-release filtered. They
don't. dependabot-core#13815 rewrote the Docker pre-release heuristic to
catch PEP 440 tags (its tests cover 3.15.0a2 and 3.5.0b3), yet the
suffixed real tag still got through seven months later. CPython spells
pre-releases without a separator, so 3.15.0b3 parses as an ordinary
version sorting above 3.14.6. Ignore python semver-minor/major instead
of trusting the heuristic; patch and digest updates still flow.
The run took hours rather than failing: the health wait looked bounded
at 60 iterations x 2s, but bare `curl` has no timeout. The 3.15 image
booted a container that bound 8084 without ever serving (greenlet has no
3.15 wheel, so the gevent gunicorn worker was wedged), so curl blocked
on
read forever and the loop never reached iteration 2. Every job's orphan
process at cancellation was that curl. Bound each probe and switch to a
wall-clock deadline, and add timeout-minutes so a hang can never reach
6h
again.
Verified against a socket that accepts and never responds: the old loop
was still hung at 30s, the new one exits at 120s with HEALTHY=0 into the
existing log-dump path, and a responsive endpoint is still detected
immediately.
- Adds `uv`, `ruff`, `pyright`, `vulture` and `pytest-xdist`
- Move project, lockfile, docker build etc to uv
- Align python tooling on 3.14
- Huge bulk of ruff linter fixes applied. Still in progress but all the
core types are now enforced
- Update CI and test helpers
