Is there a bug number in Launchpad which we can refer to in the hint? Additionally, if the broken tests are causing the package to fail to migrate (it appears on update-excuses) the bug should be tagged update-excuse for future travelers.

MP updated with pointer to update-excuse bug.

[Steve Langasek (vorlon)]

Confirmed that this is a new test and the test is buggy, not necessarily the code. It's suboptimal that we are regressing test coverage on armhf as a result (by no longer being able to check the status of the many other tests that do pass) but we have a bug to track the issue.
