 Subject: pygobject: FTBFS on 64-bit BE: "Fatal Python error: Aborted" in 
  test_length_array_utf8_optional_inout()

 Source: pygobject 
 Version: 3.54.3-1 
 Severity: serious 
 Tags: ftbfs experimental 
 Justification: fails to build from source (but built successfully in the 
 past) 
 X-Debbugs-Cc: debian-s390@lists.debian.org, debian-powerpc@lists.debian.org 
 User: debian-s390@lists.debian.org

 Control: block 1099164 by -1 
  
 pygobject's build fails on s390x and ppc64 with a log similar to the one 
 below. It succeeded on powerpc and ppc64el, which strongly suggests an 
 endianness issue - probably mixing up a pointer to a 32-bit quantity 
 with a pointer to a 64-bit quantity, which on little-endian is masked by 
 the earlier bytes of the 64-bit thing being the least significant bytes 
 of its value, and the later bytes in practice being all-zeroes or 
 all-ones. 
  
 libpeas/experimental failed to build on the same architectures, with the 
 older pygobject 3.52.x. It isn't necessarily very worthwhile to 
 investigate that until pygobject is fixed, because a newer pygobject 
 might fix it anyway, so I'm not reporting a bug for that right now.
