[ Reason ] This release fixes Bug #858253: FTBFS randomly (AssertionError: Lists differ: [b'a', b'a/c'] != [b'a/c']) [ Impact ] If the update is not approved, anybody building the package from source will experience that the package will FTBFS randomly (with high probability) for no good reason. [ Tests ] I can reproduce the random FTBFS failures. The test suite is definitely not appropriate for the current code. As there is a new upstream release in unstable and the version in stable will not change, there is no point in keeping the flaky test suite in stable. [ Risks ] The program remains the same. Only the test suite is disabled. [ Checklist ] [X] *all* changes are documented in the d/changelog [X] I reviewed all changes and I approve them [X] attach debdiff against the package in (old)stable [X] the issue is verified as fixed in unstable [ Changes ] The test suite is disabled, as it's extremely flaky.
