trying: samtools
skipped: samtools (0, 5, 585)
    got: 20+0: a-1:a-0:a-0:a-0:i-17:m-0:m-0:p-0:s-2
    * s390x: tophat
 

Tophat builds on s390x and depends (but not build-depends) on samtools, which no longer builds on s390x.

So I opened https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=949378

"RM: tophat [s390x] -- ROM; Blocking migration of samtools to testing"

The buildds run "unstable"
