Is this wrong?
If you click ppc64el (or any architecture) from that page, it shows the test history. That test has only been run once on that architecture and it failed. Currently, Debian is set up to block migration even for this case. That is why pytorch-vision has not migrated to Testing despite meeting the 5 day wait. Ubuntu's migration system does not block for an autopkgtest that never succeeded but Debian's is stricter, perhaps to discourage autopkgtests being run that never pass? Debian's autopkgtest system may have been looser earlier but it has been this way for a while now. Thank you, Jeremy Bícha
