Yes, I know the cause: the subversion testsuite starts up a server, then tries to connect to it right away, which fails because the server hasn't finished initialising itself yet. I already patched around this by adding a 'sleep 1' in there, but apparently this is insufficient on m68k. I've changed it to 'sleep 2' for the next upload, but the correct fix is a retry loop of some sort. Since I don't know ruby, anyone who does know ruby is invited to help us out: see 'debian/patches/ruby-test-svnserve-race' in the source package. (Note, the impact of the 'sleep N' is about N*64 seconds of build time on every build, every architecture. So I don't want to just make N really large.) Thanks, Peter
