[Pkg-erlang-devel] Bug#997801: elixir-lang: autopkgtest fails on armhf: Cannot allocate 512 bytes of memory (of type "bpd").

Dear maintainer(s),

With a recent upload of erlang the autopkgtest of elixir-lang fails in
testing when that autopkgtest is run with the binary packages of erlang
from unstable. This was reported and fixed, but on armhf the test still
fails. It passes when run with only packages from testing. In tabular form:

                       pass            fail
erlang                 from testing    1:24.1.1+dfsg-1
elixir-lang            from testing    1.12.2.dfsg-2.1
all others             from testing    from testing

I copied some of the output at the bottom of this report.

Currently this regression is blocking the migration of erlang to testing
[1]. Of course, erlang shouldn't just break your autopkgtest (or even
worse, your package), but it seems to me that the change in erlang was
intended and your package needs to update to the new situation.

If this is a real problem in your package (and not only in your
autopkgtest), the right binary package(s) from erlang should really add
a versioned Breaks on the unfixed version of (one of your) package(s).
Note: the Breaks is nice even if the issue is only in the autopkgtest as
it helps the migration software to figure out the right versions to
combine in the tests.
