I maintain the python-pexpect package, which is noarch. Koji is
trying to build the Fedora 20 packages on ARM machines, and for
some reason, one of the tests is failing. I've opened a report
with upstream, but neither the upstream maintainer nor I have
access to any ARM machines to figure out what's going on.
What's the right way to deal with this situation? Is it possible
to block the noarch package from the ARM architecture?
Well, you *can* use the ExcludeArch directive, but the obvious
question to me is: Why is the test failing? If there's a bug in the
test when run on ARM, can you just patch it to skip that test?
Looking at
http://kojipkgs.fedoraproject.org//work/tasks/4455/5834455/build.log
it appears to be failing on a test to see if python-pexpect can send
all control-codes to the client. It looks like it timed out. Is it
possible that ARM is just slow to process it and that patching the
test to increase the timeout would be sufficient?
