Bug#790067: [sparc] libssh: tests FAILED: torture_pki (Timeout)

[Andreas Cadhalpun]

Source: libssh
Version: 0.6.3-4
Severity: important
X-Debbugs-Cc: debian-sparc at lists.debian.org, pkg-gnutls-maint at lists.alioth.debian.org

Dear Maintainer,

libssh now builds a gcrypt flavor and runs the tests at build time.
This combination causes a build failure on sparc, because the torture_pki
test of the gcrypt flavor times out.
I've run the test in qemu (which is not much slower than the buildd) and
the torture_pki test (in particular torture_pki_generate_key_dsa)
with gcrypt takes 3.5 hours. This is more than an order of magnitude longer
than the test timeout of 25 minutes.
For comparison, this test only takes 3 min with openssl.

This could be a libgcrypt bug on sparc, if so, please reassign.
It might make sense to ignore the test failure on sparc until this is fixed,
because the failed build blocks other packages.

Best regards,
Andreas
