Bug#920549: git-annex: flaky autopkgtest

[Paul Gevers]

Source: git-annex
Version: 7.20190122-1 	
Severity: important
X-Debbugs-CC: debian-ci at lists.debian.org
User: debian-ci at lists.debian.org
Usertags: flaky

Dear maintainers,

You packages fails regularly on the ci.debian.net infrastructure without
apparent changes. Just now, it was blocking migration of sqlite3 due to
a failure, but when I retrigged the test, it passed. Could you please
investigate and make your autopkgtest more robust? Please contact me if
you need help and you think I can provide that (I am not subscribed to
this bug).

Recent discussion of gating migration by autopkgtests on debian-devel
[1] noted that if this is going to work, and in particular now we are
*blocking* migration when it causes autopkgtest regressions,
intermittent autopkgtest failures are likely to have to be considered RC
due to their impact on the tested package's dependencies; for now I've
filed it as important.

Paul
