[Python-apps-team] Bug#787234: cython: FTBFS on arm64, ...

[Edmund Grimley Evans]

Source: cython
Version: 0.22+git62-g9aaa667-1

It failed to build on some architectures:

https://buildd.debian.org/status/package.php?p=cython&suite=sid

I think one of the tests is taking too long on some machines:

"Build killed with signal TERM after 150 minutes of inactivity"

You could disable the test that takes so long, modify it to take less
time, get the test to print something as it runs, to avoid
"inactivity", or the parallelisation (bug #750841) might help if other
shorter tests then run at the same time, generating output.

It built for me on arm64 when I left it running overnight with no
time-out.
