The source package goffice does not build from source on ppc64. To

ifeq ($(DEB_BUILD_ARCH),$(filter $(DEB_BUILD_ARCH),powerpc ppc64el

@echo "======== will not abort on test(s) failure ========"
-dh_auto_test

dh_auto_test

The source is then built successfully on ppc64.
The binary libgoffice-0.10-dev from this source is important for the
build of gnumeric which couldn't be built on ppc64 for a very long
time.
Please fix.
Disabling the testsuite isn't really a fix, just a workaround which can
cause
the package to cause crashes on the end user system. A proper fix would
be
investigating and fixing why the testsuite is failing.
