glib2.0/i386 was pretty consistently failing for me. It looks like the new version in unstable is better (https://objectstorage.prodstack4-5.canonical.com/v1/AUTH_77e2ada1e7a84929a74ba3b87153c0ac /autopkgtest-eoan-laney- ppa/eoan/i386/g/glib2.0/20191216_173854_41ef9@/log.gz), so I'm uploading that as a new backport to replace the SRU currently in eoan-proposed.
