Yeah, it's probably some difficulty with gdb. As a hack, you could remove the build-dep on gdb (on arm64) and the test will be disabled. You can see the list of troublesome architecture in debian/control; some of those may actually work now after a change to the test between 0.18 and 0.18.1. If you want to debug further, you can try stepping through test/atomicity.gdb. > Is there a way to get a more verbose test log? > there is some more output in tmp.T380-atomicity after the test fails > I plan to do an NMU with the patch below, so that at least this > package is updated (unless you say no).

I was waiting for the emacs24 backport before moving forward with this, I think your patch looks sensible; there are still developers hand building debian packages with emacs23. If possible I'd prefer a git patch against the release branch of git://git.notmuchmail.org/git/notmuch d -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
