Package: ftp.debian.org Severity: important Please remove libdbd-firebird-perl from sid/s390x. The test failures in version 1.12-1 observed on the buildd show that the package is completely unsuitable for release. Other (release) architectures pass all the tests (except of hang on mipsel, but I suspect buildd is to blame, asked for g-b on another buildd). Similar failures are observed on other 64-bit big-endian architectures.
It has built in the past (once), but haven't run the part of the test suite that deals with the actual database work. Given the kind of test failures observed, I think that the current package is completely useless on s390x, and always was. Build logs are at https://buildd.debian.org/status/logs.php?pkg=libdbd-firebird-perl&arch=s390x I am working on debugging the failures, but this may take time, and the package would be blocking the perl5.18 transition in the mean time. This is also the reason for the important severity.
