The original bug reported here - partial failure of cram's test suite - seems to be triggered by python-coverage >= 4.5, first uploaded to Debian in Februari of 2018 (i.e. roughly 2 years after cram 0.7-1). With earlier versions of coverage, cram 0.7-1 builds fine. I don't know whether the bug is in cram, its test suite, or coverage though.
Any known examples of cram failing in packages using it for their test suites? Otherwise, please consider doing an upload of cram that runs the test suite but ignores the outcome until there's more definitive info on the root cause of this bug.
