Pipeline hangs when trigger.status is failure

[bradrydzewski]

problem with build hanging when pipeline dependency graph is defined, where the final node in the graph should only execute on failure (below).

this was discussed in the comments of #2553

kind: pipeline
name: greeting

steps:
  - name: en
    image: alpine:3.8
    commands:
      - echo hello
      - echo world
      - sleep 10
      - exit 1

---
kind: pipeline
name: saludo

steps:
  - name: es
    image: alpine:3.8
    commands:
      - echo hola
      - echo mundo

---
kind: pipeline
name: salutation

steps:
  - name: fr
    image: alpine:3.8
    commands:
      - echo bonjour
      - echo monde
      - echo $DRONE_BUILD_STATUS

trigger:
  status:
+   - failure

depends_on:
  - greeting
  - saludo

I believe this is still an issue. I am also getting skipped with the lastest drone.

I tested to make sure there was no regression since this issue was closed, and everything seemed to work for me. You can see the example here:

If you continue to experience issues I recommend creating discourse thread and providing the additional details mentioned in this troubleshooting guide.
