Thanks for confirming.

Thanks a lot for the clarification.  I've thought I would have implemented
your hints in debian/tests/autopkgtest-pkg-r.conf[5] but it seems that's
not all I need to do here since the debci failure on s390x persists[6].

Any hint what I can do next?

Thanks again for all your help
