Hello DFSG team.

I'd like to make a minor comment about this automated review.

Build failures with the nocheck build profile are considered to be RC
by the Release Managers, and this is included in the Release Policy
for forky, so I would assign this a higher severity than "minor".

Not sure how many intermediate levels are there between "minor" and
"blocking". If the automated system actually tries to build the
package with nocheck build profile and it fails, or if you estimate
that the failure will happen with very high confidence, I think it
would be ok to use "blocking" here.

Note: I make archive rebuilds from time to time with nocheck build
profile, and report what I find here:

https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/[email protected];tag=ftbfs-nocheck-profile

so if we can avoid adding new packages early to the "set of affected packages", 
the better.

Thanks.
