Bug#898294: llvm-toolchain-6.0: time consuming autopktest ends with syntax error

[Paul Gevers]

Source: llvm-toolchain-6.0
Version: 1:6.0-3
Severity: normal
User: debian-ci at lists.debian.org
Usertags: issue

While inspecting autopkgtest results¹, I noticed that your package
llvm-toolchain-6.0 often takes an extremely long time to run (either 1.5
hours or > 6 hours). Ironically all that time is wasted (on building the
package. Do you know the idea of autopkgtest is to test the installed
package?) because the error is:

autopkgtest [15:10:15]: test llvm: [-----------------------
/tmp/autopkgtest-lxc.px5p58zm/downtmp/build.jML/src/debian/tests/llvm:
10:
/tmp/autopkgtest-lxc.px5p58zm/downtmp/build.jML/src/debian/tests/llvm:
Syntax error: end of file unexpected (expecting "fi")
autopkgtest [15:10:16]: test llvm: -----------------------]

I think you are aware of the issue, because you seem to have fixed it in
your VCS and disabled the tests. Could you please upload the fix or the
disabling? We are wasting precious time on the infrastructure.

If you are not going to upload soon, could you drop me a line so that I
can blacklist llvm-toolchain-6.0 from running?
