I don't think that's an accurate way to describe the status of graph-tool.

The problem with graph-tool is that it needs a lot of memory per CPU.

But I managed to make it work in most cases (see the commits and the
uploads I did) by making some calculations in debian/rules which
adjust the parallelism according to available memory. If those
calculations do not work in Salsa CI, we might better figure out why,
instead of saying "will never build".

Thanks.
