config/default.yaml reads its camera's host, username and password from
${ENV}. Unset placeholders parse as YAML null, and CameraConfig had no
_normalize_blanks - the guard ApiSection and EmailSection have had all
along - so loading it raised three pydantic errors and the engine would
not start at all. On a developer's checkout .env is right there, which is
why this survived: the failing machine is every machine the product is
actually installed on, and installer/build.ps1 runs this suite, so the
Windows build would have failed on a fresh clone.
The normalisation is field-by-field, never a blanket None -> "": `webcam`
is an Optional[int] whose None means "this is not a webcam", and `tuning`
is a nested model. Sweeping either trades one validation error for
another - which it did, on the first attempt.
Second bug behind the same line: that camera entry would then have been
SEEDED into a fresh install, giving a shop a camera called cam1 that
nobody added, retrying a connection to "" forever, with the first task on
a new PC being to work out what it was. CameraConfig.addressed() says
what a camera entry needs to be one, and seed() drops the rest.
Found by cloning the repository into a temp directory and running the
tests there. Nothing in a working tree can find this class of bug.
