[pkg-go] Bug#799472: golang-github-golang-leveldb: Non-determistically FTBFS due to unreliable tests

[Chris Lamb]

Source: golang-github-golang-leveldb
Version: 0.0~git20150720.0.df57eb2-1
Severity: serious
Justification: fails to build from source

Dear Maintainer,

golang-github-golang-leveldb's testsuite appears to
non-deterministically fail, causing the
itself to FTBFS. I can reliably reproduce this simply by building the
package in a dumb "while $build; do :; done" loop.

If it helps, my /tmp is completely vanilla ext4 (it looks lock related?)
