A closer look tells me that this is not really random. Instead, it always fails on the fast machines I have, and never on the slower ones. When it fails, we can see this in the build log: tests/test_uic.py Aborted so I tried "ulimit -c unlimited" before "dpkg-buildpackage -uc -us -b" and this was the result: https://people.debian.org/~sanvila/python-qtpy/python-qtpy-1.2.1.build.tar.gz This is the whole build tree, including the "core" file that was generated by the python interpreter, so in addition to the help tag, I would also: a) disable tests/test_uic.py until further notice, as we don't know why it fails. b) forward the bug upstream so that the author investigates about it. Thanks.
