[Debian-astro-maintainers] Bug#860647: healpy: FTBFS on i386: Test failures

Source: healpy
Version: 1.10.3-2
Severity: serious

Justification: FTBFS in stretch on i386

Hi,

During a rebuild of all packages in stretch (in a stretch chroot, not a
sid chroot), your package failed to build on i386.

Relevant part (hopefully):
>             numRings = 4*nside - 1 # Expected number of rings
>             for nest in (True, False):
>                 pix = np.arange(numPix)
> >               ring = pix2ring(nside, pix, nest=nest)

About the archive rebuild: The rebuild was done on EC2 VM instances from
Amazon Web Services, using a clean, minimal and up-to-date chroot. Every
failed build was retried once to eliminate random failures.
