RE: Bug#796731: freecontact: FTBFS on mips (test suite failure)

[Dejan Latinovic <Dejan.Latinovic@imgtec.com>]

Hi,

this is obviously a consequence of mips buildd's limitations.
In past all three successfully builds had happened on ball.
I also was able to built freecontact successfully for mips on machine with FPU, localy.
On machine without FPU, if icme_timeout is significantly increased
tests executes successfully but need a lot of time
so the TERM signal breaks the build.

I was not able to find ball specification, so I am not sure if
it have FPU.
Are there any mips buildd's that have FPU?
If yes, maybe we could blacklist freecontact on other machines?

If no, should we disable tests for mips?
I could provide patches and test it if needed?

Regards,
Dejan
