Dear Maintainer,

Your package gnote 51~beta-2 failed to build on ppc64el on the buildd 
with below build log:

https://buildd.debian.org/status/fetch.php?pkg=gnote&arch=ppc64el&ver=51%7Ebeta-2&stamp=1790190921&raw=0

The test gnote:gnote_unit_tests was killed by SIGABRT. The last
line of the log is:


4/4 gnote:gnote_unit_tests FAIL            0.15s   killed by signal 6

I could not reproduce the failure locally on ppc64el:
A clean sbuild of gnote 51~beta-2 in a sid ppc64el chroot succeeded, 
including the test suite.

Since the failure does not reproduce, it may be intermittent or caused 
by a build-dependency difference on that buildd at that time.
Could you request a give-back on ppc64el to see whether it recurs? If it 
does, I can help collect a backtrace.


Thanks,
Trupti
