Did you search the code for relevant parts of the error message?
Searching for 'We should not be able to read this file' finds it in
backend/manager/modules/utils/src/test/java/org/ovirt/engine/core/utils/servlet/ServletUtilsTest.java
twice - once when trying to read '/doesnotexist/iamprettysure', and
the other when trying to read '/etc/securetty'.
I did not think to look for
the file. Will remember this in future.
The latter file is 0600 on Fedora, RHEL and derivatives. I guess
it's
readable for your user on your system, which might not be a good idea
in itself - but that's a different discussion.
Some options for how to continue:
1. Submit a patch for the engine to change this test to test for some
other file that is more likely to be unreadable, e.g. /etc/shadow.
2. Locally set it on your system to be unreadable to you.
3. Assuming it's Debian's default, ask on Debian lists/forums to
change it to be non-world-readable and/or why it's not like that
already.
4. Ignore unit tests for now, 'make BUILD_UT=0 install-dev'. Check
README.adoc for details.
I am ccing the Deb Virtualization Team for this, in the
hopes that
they may have a different opinion, but when I asked in the #debian IRC
channel on OFTC, I was told that the file is now presently read by
pam_securetty so permissions of 0600 would be fine, though the person
responding didn't see the use of making the permissions stricter than
they already are (0644). Maybe you could elaborate on the importance
of having this set to 0600? Pending that I will go for option 4, and
choose from options 1 to 3 when packaging for Debian.

This should probably be ok, unless your version of pep8 is too old/
too new/has different defaults than what we use in CI (which is the
"common denominator").
Good luck,
