Bug#1014506: slurm-wlm: flaky autopkgtest: sbatch fails without

[Paul Gevers <elbrus@debian.org>]

Source: slurm-wlm
Version: 21.08.8.2-1
Severity: serious
X-Debbugs-CC: debian-ci@lists.debian.org
User: debian-ci@lists.debian.org
Usertags: flaky

Dear maintainer(s),

I looked at the results of the autopkgtest of you package on armhf 
because it was showing up as a regression for the upload of perl. I 
noticed that the test regularly fails and I saw failures on other 
architectures too.

Because the unstable-to-testing migration software now blocks on
regressions in testing, flaky tests, i.e. tests that flip between
passing and failing without changes to the list of installed packages,
are causing people unrelated to your package to spend time on these
tests.

Don't hesitate to reach out if you need help and some more information
from our infrastructure.

Paul
