Comment 3 for bug 1785262

Christian raised this with us just now - I think we should consider taking a look at this.

Looking at

http://autopkgtest.ubuntu.com/packages/libreoffice/hirsute/arm64
http://autopkgtest.ubuntu.com/packages/libreoffice/hirsute/armhf

the tests are basically OK but one of the uicheck-* ones ends up timing out often enough that it can be described as flaky. When this happens it causes a problem for other migrations, doubly so as the runs take many hours to complete whether they fail or not, which slows down migration speed.

If it's not possible to fix the timeouts (feels like it might be hard or take a while) then disabling these subtests (only) on arm would be an option - stable tests with less coverage are better than flaky ones with more.

We had

in the past which might be a basis for what to do now, but that would want to be extended to arm64 too.
