Help with a libzstd sparc64 FTBFS on the buildd
Hi, The libzstd package in testing is currently missing a couple of build-time tests and a fix for a very rare data corruption bug. Both of these have been fixed in libstd-1.5.4+dfsg2-5 in unstable; however, I feel like I cannot ask for an unblock from the release managers since the sparc64 buildd started failing on this package at some point in February: https://buildd.debian.org/status/logs.php?pkg=libzstd&arch=sparc64 Now, the -1, -2, and -4 failures I can explain: there were some problems in the upstream test suite that were fixed in -3 and -5. However, -3 and -5 should really not have failed: they built successfully on all other architectures where the build dependencies were installable, and they also passed autopkgtest runs: https://ci.debian.net/packages/libz/libzstd/ I set up a qemu-based sbuild environment on my laptop, and I built the libzstd package successfully. Is it possible that something is wrong with the sparc64 buildd? Could somebody with an actual sparc64 box try to build libstd-1.5.4+dfsg2-5 and let me know if it works for them? Thanks in advance!

I suggest to consider those problem separately. TBH, that was my own understanding, and I was about to send an unblock request earlier today, but then I decided to take another look at the freeze policy and the phrase "migration for packages only allowed if all their binary packages have been built on buildds" threw me a bit. But yeah, I should have realized that should only apply to release architectures... thanks for correcting my thinking!
