Dear maintainer(s),

I looked at the results of the autopkgtest of you package because it was showing up on our "slow" page [1]. I noticed that there were several runs that took 2:47 (our timeout time), while successful runs more in the order of minutes.

Because the unstable-to-testing migration software now blocks on
regressions in testing, flaky tests, i.e. tests that flip between
passing and failing without changes to the list of installed packages,
are causing people unrelated to your package to spend time on these
tests.

On top of that, when a test just hangs that's not good for our infrastructure. I'll put dogtag-pki on our reject_list for amd64, armhf, and s390x.

Don't hesitate to reach out if you need help and some more information
from our infrastructure. E.g. I note that the runs on amd64 that I happen to check are run on ci-worker13 that, together with our armhf worker is running on a host with lots of CPUs (64 and 160) and RAM (256GB and 511GB) and also our s390x has 10 CPUs and 32 GB.

Paul
