[Debian-med-packaging] Bug#1053499: hilive: flaky autopkgtest on several archs: segfault

[Paul Gevers]

Source: hilive
Version: 2.0a-3
Severity: serious
User: debian-ci at lists.debian.org
Usertags: flaky

Dear maintainer(s),

I looked at the results of the autopkgtest of your package (it showed up 
for the glibc security update in stable). I noticed that it regularly 
fails on several architectures, mostly on i386, due to a segfault. (On 
s390x and riscv64 it always fails, the logs I checked were also due to 
segfault).

Because the unstable-to-testing migration software now blocks on
regressions in testing, flaky tests, i.e. tests that flip between
passing and failing without changes to the list of installed packages,
are causing people unrelated to your package to spend time on these
tests.

Don't hesitate to reach out if you need help and some more information
from our infrastructure.

Paul
