Source: octave-ltfat
Version: 2.2.0+dfsg-8
Severity: normal
User: [email protected]
Usertags: regression timeout
Since the run of 25 April 2018, the autopkgtests¹ are timing out (~
3 hours) while previous runs tested in about 20 seconds (and
failed). Could you please investigate how to get rid of the timeout?
And please fix your test to actually pass, but that is less
important now.
I will blacklist octave-ltfat on ci.debian.net for now.
Don't hesitate to ask for help for the Debian CI team² if you need
help solving this issue.
You did the right thing in blacklisting octave-ltfat. Its unit tests
take a insane amount of time to run. No wonder the package is called
*_Large_* Time/Frequency Analysis Toolbox.
I will check with the upstream authors whether some tests can be sped
up. Otherwise, I will try to suppress some of the time-consuming unit
tests.
I uploaded a new version of the octave-ltfat package, which built
correctly on most architectures:
https://buildd.debian.org/status/package.php?p=octave-ltfat
You might whitelist the package on ci.d.n to see what happens.

P.S.: How is timeout detected on ci.d.n?
