bug#22122: {python, python2}-statsmodels on i686: "SVD did not converge"

2017-08-28 Thread Mark H Weaver
I analyzed Hydra's database, and discovered that these "SVD did not converge" test failures on i686 depend only on which machine attempts the build, and are otherwise deterministic. hydra.gnunet.org fails 100% of the time. It has *never* passed this test on i686. chapters.gnu.org also fails 100%
