Package: r-cran-gwidgetstcltk
Version: 0.0-55.1-2
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

r-cran-gwidgetstcltk is more often than not failing its autopkgtests with the 
following error:

    BEGIN TEST runRUnit.R
    xvfb-run: error: Xvfb failed to start

(see https://ci.debian.net/packages/r/r-cran-gwidgetstcltk/).

This appears to be caused by the test script iterating over a list of test 
files and spawning xvfb-run for each of them, without waiting for the previous 
instance to clean up after itself, thus often resulting in the server number 
not being free. Passing "-a" to xvfb-run (to get a free server number for each 
instance) appears to fix the problem reliably.
