** Description changed:

+ [ Impact ]
+ 
+ There are a number of gtk4 tests (build-time, and again at autopkgtest
+ time) that are failing on s390x *only* when run in the combination of an
+ updated mesa package (25.0.7-0ubuntu0.24.04.1).
+ 
+ s390x is not a desktop platform, there are no desktop images for it, and
+ gtk4 is not seeded in that architecture. While it would be best to fully
+ understand what is making these tests fail, it's best to skip them for
+ now in that architecture only, so that users in other architectures can
+ benefit from the mesa and gtk4 updates.
+ 
+ 
+ [ Test Plan ]
+ The failure manifests itself in the build-time tests, which are again 
repeated at autopkgtest time. Therefore, the test plan consists of:
+ - no build failure in any platform, and specifically s390x
+ - no autopkgtest failure in any platform, and specifically s390x
+ 
+ [ Where problems could occur ]
+ 
+ This SRU is skipping certain gtk4 tests in s390x only, not reducing the
+ test coverage in other architectures.
+ 
+ Since the real cause of the test failures was not determined yet (and
+ they only fail in combination with the new mesa update, as mentioned in
+ the [impact] section), it's possible that by skipping these tests we are
+ overlooking something that could be important down the line.
+ 
+ [ Other Info ]
+ 
+ There is already a long list of tests that are being skipped on s390x,
+ and we are adding more tests to that list.
+ 
+ [ Original Description ]
+ 
  First seen in the autopkgtest:
  
  https://autopkgtest.ubuntu.com/packages/g/gtk4/noble/s390x
  
  mesa 25.0.7-0ubuntu0.24.04.1 regresses the autopkgtest of gtk4
  4.14.5+ds-0ubuntu0.1 on s390x.
  
  42515s build-x11            PASS (superficial)
  42515s build-wayland        FAIL timed out
  42515s python3-gi-x11       PASS (superficial)
  42515s python3-gi-wayland   FAIL timed out
  42515s installed-tests-x11  PASS
  42515s installed-tests-wayland FAIL non-zero exit status 2
  42515s installed-tests-flaky-x11 FLAKY non-zero exit status 2
  42515s installed-tests-flaky-wayland FLAKY non-zero exit status 2
  
  The build-wayland and python3-gi-wayland autopkgtests do not terminate
  and eventually hit the time out.
  
  We have tried running the tests on a bigger instance (added to
  'big_packages') and have tried triggering the tests with 'all-
  proposed=1'.
