Hi Michael,

I installed a virtual machine with mips64el and the testsuite weirdly runs through.
I was able to reproduce it using ppc64el:
# echo "deb-src http://deb.debian.org/debian unstable main" >> /etc/apt/sources.list # apt update # apt build-dep libloc # apt source --compile libloc
Interestingly the new version now also fails on mipsel, so maybe it is a flaky test?
https://buildd.debian.org/status/logs.php?pkg=libloc&arch=mipsel
Given that it compiled before this means we should try to fix the bug as it is blocks testing migration, otherwise:
https://tracker.debian.org/pkg/libloc
(The other option would be to request removal of the old mipsel version.)
Additionally, the packages don’t build for Debian any more using my script.
I opened a bug ticket with the error here: https://bugzilla.ipfire.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12912
Looks like you try to cross build (installing crossbuild-essential-arm64:amd64), maybe that's currently broken. You can try installing qemu-user-static and replace --host with --arch in debian/build.sh. Btw. sbuild updates the chroot before building so there should be no need to throw it away (for a stable release).
Cheers Jochen
