I didn't want to retrigger your upload since I don't own it.

But I spun up three PPAs to check if this build time test is flaky.
The following three just started building:
- https://launchpad.net/~ci-train-ppa-service/+archive/ubuntu/3431/+packages
- https://launchpad.net/~ci-train-ppa-service/+archive/ubuntu/3432/+packages
- https://launchpad.net/~ci-train-ppa-service/+archive/ubuntu/3433/+packages

Result:
- 1 build
  - no errors at all
- 1 build
  - amd64 error (1) of above
  - i386 error (1) of above
- 1 build
  - i386 error (1) of above

So as you already found it really is a flaky test at build time.

I see for this time you already pushed "retry to win"

Strongswan hit a rather similar issue with a build time test timing out that was always fine in the past and now seems flaky (worked on retry).

Local tests were all successful, if there really is any slowdown on the builders it might be the same issue - so I dupped it here to re-check once there is an idea what to do about it on LP-builders.

Whatever it was is resolved now, the recent strongswan builds worked fine

Working fine now for ruby as well https://launchpad.net/~ci-train-ppa-service/+archive/ubuntu/3552/+build/15737990

Either the builder setup was fixed or it was - back then - just a real spike of builds driving it into too much over-commitment.
