Package: src:calcluix-cgx Version: 2.17+dfsg-1 Severity: normal I just noticed on the Ubuntu autopkgtest runners that our disk had filled up. When investigating the cause, it turns out that calculix-cgx autopkgtest runs of version 2.17+dfsg-1 have been (apparently) infinitely spamming "ERROR:^@ not valid". The biggest such log that I noticed was 37G!
It looks like autopkgtest [07:05:15]: test build1: [----------------------- on a Linux machine, nodename autopkgtest, release 5.4.0-42-generic, version #46-Ubuntu SMP Fri Jul 10 00:22:04 UTC 2020, machine ppc64le The HOME was detected:/home/ubuntu parameters:3 arguments:2 send.fbl opened reading file WARNING: Found a 'sys' command (a system call): sys rm -f *.flm *.rad *.msh *.bou *.equ Since a system call can be dangerous You have to chose now between stop (s), continue (c) or enable (e).

(forever) I've pinged the Debian CI people, will report back & upgrade the severity if they confirm it is happening on Debian too.
