Dear maintainer,
nickle fails to build from source on riscv64 due to a testsuite timeout:

It appears that the test timeouts defined as part of the switch to meson
are too short for the riscv64 build daemons. Increasing it by a factor
3, like in the patch below, allows the testsuite to pass:
--- nickle-2.98.orig/debian/rules
+++ nickle-2.98/debian/rules
@@ -29,3 +29,7 @@
override_dh_autoreconf:
echo using meson
+
+# Give the tests more time on slow arches
+override_dh_auto_test:
+ dh_auto_test -- --timeout-multiplier 3
The problem on the hppa and sparc64 build daemons are likely the same.
