Dear Santiago, Thanks for your build logs.
1. flycheck tends to FTBFS because the test suite contains many tests which encode expected output from ~30 command line tools. When one of those tools sees a new upstream version which tweaks its output, the test breaks. 2. The test suite also fails under certain autobuilder setups. In particular, the reproducible builds team's automated builders fail with mysterious permission errors. I think it is something to do with their tmpfs setup -- though I use tmpfs with sbuild and can't reproduce the error. Looking at the logs, I believe that the problems identified by both you and Chris as type (1). Since I can't reproduce it outside of the reproducible build servers, I don't consider (2) a bug in flycheck at present. So I'll consider this bug as tracking current test suite failures, and I'll close it with an upload in which the test suite passes against current Debian sid. -- Sean Whitton
