** Description changed:

- php-parser's autopkgtest has been failing in focal on armhf for some
- time:
+ [Impact]
+ 
+ Other php SRUs end up blocked from migration due to a test case in php-
+ parser that fails due to an integer format mismatch.
+ 
+ 
+ [Test Case]
+ 1. Create lxc container for ubuntu-focal
+ 2. Install php-parser
+ 3. Run autopkgtest php-parser -- null
+ 
+ The testsuite should pass but it does not, and fails with this error:
+ 
+ TBD
+ 
+ 
+ [Regression Potential]
+ 
+ Since this is a testsuite fix for integer parsing on armhf, the two
+ things to watch for would be a) issues relating to the testsuite, or b)
+ issues particular to armhf (especially traceable to integer parsing
+ behavior).  However, in the first case, the testsuite's behavior would
+ crop up only during building / migrating in the archive and would not
+ produce user-visible effects.  In the second case, integer parsing
+ issues already exist in released code so would not be a true regression,
+ the test case only exposes them - by preventing other php packages from
+ migrating.
+ 
+ 
+ [Discussion]
+ php-parser's autopkgtest has been failing in focal on armhf for some time:
  
      http://autopkgtest.ubuntu.com/packages/p/php-parser/focal/armhf
  
  The test failure is due to an integer format mismatch.  We spotted this
  issue on groovy and flagged it for upstream:
  
      https://github.com/nikic/PHP-Parser/issues/662
  
  There doesn't appear to be a fix identified yet.  We addressed it in
  groovy by disabling the faulty test, and that may be a low-risk way to
  address it for focal, too.
