Bug#900230: nqp: autopkgtest times out

Sun May 27 19:46:22 BST 2018

Source: nqp
Version: 2018.03+dfsg-2
Severity: normal
User: debian-ci at lists.debian.org
Usertags: regression timeout

Since version 2018.03+dfsg-2, the autopkgtests¹ are timing out (~ 3
hours) while previous runs tested in about 1 minute.
Could you please investigate how to get rid of the timeout?

I will blacklist nqp on ci.debian.net for now, but will reactivate it
when this bug is closed and the test doesn't time out anymore.

A note about time outs. If it really takes this much time to run the
tests, time outs can often be worked around by splitting a test into
multiple autopkgtest because each gets its own timeout. On the other
hand, if that is the case, is 3 hours or more on the ci.d.n really worth it?

Don't hesitate to ask for help for the Debian CI team² if you need help
solving this issue.
