Source: pymol
Version: 3.1.0+dfsg-1
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. I noticed 
that it regularly fails on riscv64. I noticed bugs 783653 and 709306 and 
this might be related. For riscv64 we have multiple hosts with different 
hardware, so this might be hardware (and potentially kernel) related. 
Message 783653#54 suggested there is a work-around, maybe that should be 
the default?

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
