[PKG-Openstack-devel] Bug#836508: barbican: FTBFS in testing (failing tests)

[Santiago Vila]

Package: src:barbican
Version: 1:2.0.0-5
Severity: serious

Dear maintainer:

I tried to build this package in stretch with "dpkg-buildpackage -A"
(which is what the "Arch: all" autobuilder would do to build it)
but it failed:

The failure does not seem related to using "dpkg-buildpackage -A".

Thanks.
