It's not: I tried on armhf (many times) and amd64 (once). But, trying more: machine arch result ------------------------------------ armhf armhf ✗ ------------------------------------ arm64 arm64 ✗ arm64 armhf ✗ ------------------------------------ amd64 amd64 ✗ amd64 i386 ✗ amd64 x32 ✗ amd64 armhf (qemu-user) ✗ amd64 arm64 (qemu-user) ✗ amd64 mips (qemu-user) ✗ ------------------------------------ i386 i386 ✓ The machine that succeeded differs by: * (slightly) kernel: 4.15-rc3 vs 4.15-rc6 on the rest * decade of manufacture (a dingy pre-NX Pentium4) * host release: stretch vs unstable on the rest * sbuild backend: dir vs btrfs on the rest * underlying filesystem: ext4... Working hypothesis so far is that the testsuite fails on btrfs; I won't be able to confirm until the evening.
