--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The above is just how the build ends and not necessarily the most relevant part.
I've put several full build logs here:
https://people.debian.org/~sanvila/build-logs/202507/
About the archive rebuild: The build was made on virtual machines from AWS,
using sbuild and a reduced chroot with only build-essential packages.
Note: The build might not always fail (hence the "randomly" in the title),
but I'm getting a failure rate around 50% here, which is way above
the usual thresholds used by the RT. If you could not reproduce these
random failures please contact me privately, as I am willing
to provide ssh access to a virtual machine where they happen.
(Note: Tony Mancill has already such a VM to test this package,
which I initially created for zookeeper).
If this is really a bug in one of the build-depends, please use
reassign and add an affects on src:commons-exec, so that this is still
visible in the BTS web page for this package.
Thanks.
