commit 743a5ef2b3781b593f5299758d0a7fc78b5816c4 Author: David Goulet dgoulet@torproject.org Date: Thu Jan 14 09:42:56 2021 -0500

relay: Don't flag that we published if descriptor build fails

In case building the descriptor would fail, we could still flag that we did in fact publish the descriptors leading to no more attempt at publishing it which in turn makes the relay silent for some hours and not try to rebuild the descriptor later.

This has been spotted with #40231 because the operator used a localhost address for the ORPort and "AssumeReachable 1" leading to this code path where the descriptor failed to build but all conditions to "can I publish" were met.

Related to #40231
