[Debian-med-packaging] Bug#889623: kraken: failing autopkgtest, possibly broken package

[Steve Langasek]

Source: kraken
Version: 1.0-1
Severity: important
User: ubuntu-devel at lists.ubuntu.com
Usertags: origin-ubuntu bionic autopkgtest

Dear Andreas,

Since the upload of kraken 1.0-1, the autopkgtests for this package
have been consistently failing in both Debian and Ubuntu.  While the test
failure is (unfortunately) not considered a blocker for Debian testing,
autopkgtest regressions are blockers for Ubuntu releases.

autopkgtest [18:36:18]: test run-unit-test: [-----------------------
scan_fasta_file.pl: unable to determine taxonomy ID for sequence gi|441431932|
autopkgtest [18:36:19]: test run-unit-test: -----------------------]
autopkgtest [18:36:19]: test run-unit-test:  - - - - - - - - - - results - - - - - - - - - -
run-unit-test        FAIL non-zero exit status 25

  https://ci.debian.net/packages/k/kraken/unstable/amd64/

There is very little output from the test, so I'm unsure whether this
represents serious breakage in the package; but I do see that the tests
themselves have not changed from the previous version of the package where
the test did pass, so it does seem likely to me that this is a bug in the
package rather than in the test.
