As I mentioned on IRC, the test only fails on the Debian build machines (building in a clean chroot using sbuild is not enough) so it isn't really clear how to duplicate the it. Perhaps building in a clean virtual machine without networking would do it. For which tests fail, see https://buildd.debian.org/status/fetch.php?pkg=notmuch&arch=i386&ver=0.13.2-1&stamp=1338740444 I think the first things to fail are emacs tests. At a wild guess, it looks like all of the failing tests are related to emacs. I don't think failing the build is the right thing to do, since there does not actually seem to be anything wrong with the resulting packages. So removing them from Debian because of some problems with running the test suite seems a bit extreme. People not using notmuch-emacs would probably be especially annoyed ;). d -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
