You already investigated this and tried to fix it.
The changelog reads like this:
testresources (1.0.0-1) unstable; urgency=medium
* Do not run undeterministic test:
- test_optimising_test_suite.TestGraphStuff.testBasicSortTests
and debian/rules reads like this:
ifeq (,$(filter nocheck,$(DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS)))
nosetests -v
--exclude=testresources.tests.test_optimising_test_suite.TestGraphStuff.testBasicSortTests
nosetests3 -v
--exclude=testresources.tests.test_optimising_test_suite.TestGraphStuff.testBasicSortTests
endif
So, there is a clear intention to disable the test because of it not
being deterministic (it fails approximately 1/12 of the time).
The only problem is that the way it's being disabled does not seem to
work, and the test still runs.
So, unless you disagree with yourself, this bug should be reopened and
the test should be really disabled.
Thanks.
